Bab 83: The Future of Naval Warfare

The first of the shipyards that Bruno had begun investing in was located in Danzig. It had been completed in roughly 1903. And for the past two years it had been mostly manufacturing Light Cruisers for the Kaiserliche Marine, simply as a means of gaining the status as a reputable ship manufacturer. 

Quite frankly, it was a rather foolish act to provoke the British Empire by challenging its naval might. And it was one of the things which Bruno could only shake his head at. The Kaiser was not necessarily a poor leader. But his desire for the German Reich's prestige and glory sometimes went a bit too far. 

Nevertheless, the British Navy was ahead of the Kaiserliche Marine by several years. After all, they had been building ships for centuries for their navy, while the German Reich was only really beginning to make such efforts. Because of this, the British Shipyards were able to outproduce their rival on the High Seas by a significant amount.
