Ships

The following ships are the produced and actively-serving Schweitzer-class battleships, as well as those under construction and awaiting construction. In Rotgeheim, hull numbers are the letter and number designation given to each ship, apart from its actual ceremonial name. Destroyers in the Rotgeheiman Navy begin their hull number designations with "ZR", representing Zerstörer ("Destroyer").
