		While some argued that this gave the battleships an inferior broadside to the eight 15-inch guns of the German battleship Bismarck and her sister-ship the Tirpitz, the designers of this class pointed out that the ten guns of the 14-inch class had advantages over the eight 15-inch of the Bismarck type.
