This is the fourth of a serie of units for Kriegsmarine, reworked in collaboration with flush deck.

Based on GWX Development Team's Deutschland class panzerschiffes and Gerome73's Lutzow, 3d model updated using SHV parts and a lot of details (oblos, stairs, cables, lifeboats, glass windows\interiors, turning radars\rangefinders and torpedo launchers...).

If you've also LBSArado in your Data\German\Air\Roster, you can add scout planes to this cruiser adding those lines to NCA_Lutzow.cfg
