The Admiral Hipper was meant to be the pride of Hitler's resurgent Kriegsmarine—a heavy cruiser built in secret, violating every treaty, and designed to dominate the Atlantic. Armed with devastating 203mm guns and a sleek, intimidating profile, she was a masterpiece of German engineering on paper. But in reality, she was a flawed giant.
This documentary explores the full, troubled life of the Admiral Hipper, from her ambitious conception under the secretive Plan Z to her fiery destruction in the rubble of Kiel. We uncover the chronic engine problems and crippling fuel consumption that made her a liability on long-range missions. Follow her journey through the treacherous Norwegian fjords in Operation Weserübung, her brief and frustrating career as a commerce raider, and her pivotal role in the disastrous Battle of the Barents Sea—a failure so profound it caused Hitler to order the dissolution of his own surface fleet.
Join us as we analyze why this beautiful, technologically advanced weapon was ultimately a strategic failure, a ship built for a type of war that was already obsolete. This is the story of the Admiral Hipper: a brilliant but miscast weapon, and a symbol of the Kriegsmarine's fatal blend of ambition and delusion.
