Nuke powered Tirpitz

Haven't done a ship for a few months, and thought this might be a fun idea...and I have an old Tirp in the stash.

Nuke powered "airship" Tirpitz?

nope...just a battleship...though I may throw on a rear deck for the Dragons.

Nuclear powered, eh? Should be interesting. Looking forward to seeing where you go with this.

German scientists decide a nuclear weapon is not possible, but do design a nuclear-powered steam engine?

Actually, that's not too far off from what happened. They certainly were closer to a working reactor than a weapon.

This idea would fit in nicely as part of the A Simple Issue of Metals timeline - perhaps as an update with the same "'Harteck & Haxel' nuclear reactors" as the 'Germania' class Extremgrosseflugzeugtrager?

Nice.
I'm going to build an airship "Flying Leviathon" too.
