German training cruiser Deutschland ( A59 ) " Deutschland " ( A59 ) was a naval ship of the Bundesmarine , the West German Navy . She was constructed and used as a training cruiser ( " Schulschiffe " ) in peacetime and planned for multi - role missions in the event of war : troop ship , hospital ship , minelayer , and escort . For this reason the ship was only lightly armed for its size ( no guided missile s ) , the machinery was rather impractical and diverse , and large teaching rooms were included . Also civilians served alongside military personnel . In her time " Deutschland " was the largest naval vessel of West Germany . Permission to build the ship was granted despite being larger than allowed by tonnage restrictions imposed by the WEU on West Germany . ( The later Berlin class replenishment ship s of the reunited Germany are much larger . ) Like most German post - war naval ships she was completely NBC protected . " Deutschland " was the smallest German cruiser since the 4 , 385 - ton and " Bremse " of 1915 . This one - ship class , " Type 440 " of the German designation system , cost 95 million DM .

Arctic naval operations of World War II The Arctic Circle defining the " midnight sun " encompasses the Atlantic Ocean from the northern edge of Iceland to the Bering Strait . The area is often considered part of the Battle of the Atlantic or the European Theatre of World War II . Pre - war navigation focused on fishing and the international ore trade from Narvik and Petsamo . Soviet settlements along the coast and rivers of the Barents Sea and Kara Sea relied upon summer coastal shipping for supplies from railheads at Arkhangelsk and Murmansk . The Soviet Union extended the Northern Sea Route past the Taymyr Peninsula to the Bering Strait in 1935 . The Winter War opened the northern flank of the eastern front of World War II . Arctic naval presence was initially dominated by the Soviet Northern Fleet of a few destroyer s with larger numbers of submarine s , minesweepers , and torpedo cutters supported by icebreaker s . The success of the German invasion of Norway provided the " Kriegsmarine " with naval bases from which capital ship s might challenge units of the Royal Navy Home Fleet . " Luftwaffe " anti - shipping aircraft of Kampfgeschwader 26 ( KG 26 ) and Kampfgeschwader 30 ( KG 30 ) operated intermittently from Norwegian airfields , while routine reconnaissance was undertaken by " Küstenfliegergruppen " aircraft including Heinkel He 115 s and Blohm & Voss BV 138 s . To support the Soviet Union against the German invasion , the Allies initiated a series of PQ and JW convoys bringing military supplies to the Soviet Union in formations of freighters screened by destroyers , corvette s and minesweepers . Escorting cruiser s typically maneuvered outside the formation , while a larger covering force including battleship s and aircraft carrier s often steamed nearby to engage " Kriegsmarine " capital ships or raid their Norwegian bases . The Soviet Union and Germany employed smaller coastal convoys to maintain the flow of supplies to the Soviet arctic coast , transport strategic metal ores to Germany , and sustain troops on both sides of the northern flank of the eastern front . Soviet convoys hugged the coast to avoid ice while German convoys used fjords to evade Royal Navy patrols . Both sides devoted continuing efforts to minelaying and minesweeping of these shallow , confined routes vulnerable to mine warfare and submarine ambushes . German convoys were typically screened by minesweepers and submarine chaser s while Soviet convoys were often protected by minesweeping trawlers and torpedo cutters . A branch of the Pacific Route began carrying Lend - Lease goods through the Bering Strait to the Soviet Arctic coast in June , 1942 . The number of westbound cargo ship voyages along this route was 23 in 1942 , 32 in 1943 , 34 in 1944 , and 31 after Germany surrendered in 1945 . Total westbound tonnage through the Bering Strait was 452 , 393 in comparison to 3 , 964 , 231 tons of North American wartime goods sent across the Atlantic to Soviet Arctic ports . A large portion of the Arctic route tonnage was fuel for Siberian airfields on the Alaska - Siberia air route .
