HNLMS Holland. After just being completed the battlecruiser would end up leaving his home after discovering hints of a German invasion. He would find himself on a country somewhere in Latin America where he would spend most of the war as a commerce...
Looks: Basically a better Scharnshorst with weaker armor.
Displacement: 27,988 tonnes (27,546 long tons; 30,851 short tons)
Length: 236 m (774 ft) p.p. 241.2 m (791 ft) overall
Beam: 29.4 m (96 ft) (outside armor) 30.85 m (101.2 ft) (upper deck)
Draft: 7.8 m (26 ft)
Propulsion: 4-shaft geared turbines and 8 boilers were certain, but shp would have been either 160,000 or 180,000; the latter would have allowed a top speed of around 34 knots
Armament: 9 × 283 mm (11.1 in) guns (3 × 3) 12 × 120 mm (4.7 in)/45 caliber guns (6 × 2) 14 × 40 mm Bofors (7 × 2) 8 × 20 mm Oerlikon (8 × 1)
Stabilizer: Hazemayer Gun Mount (Stabilized gun mount designed specifically for the Bofors 40mm anti-aircraft gun. Offered a significant advantage over existing mounts by providing a stable firing platform for improved accuracy.)
Armor
Main side belt: 225 mm (9 in) inclined at 72° (external)
Upper side belt: 40 mm (1.6 in) (vertical)
Longitudinal anti-torpedo bulkhead: 40 mm (1.6 in)
Upper deck: 20 mm (0.79 in)
Main armored deck: 100 mm (4 in) on 15 mm (0.59 in) deck plating
Lower deck: 30 mm (1 in)
Boiler uptakes: 225 mm (8.9 in) gratings (main deck) and 75 mm (3.0 in) (lower deck)
Underwater protection: Bulge below main side belt (depth 1.5 m (4.9 ft))
Conning tower: 150 mm (5.9 in)
Steering compartment: 150 mm (5.9 in)
Steering compartment main deck: 125 mm (4.9 in)[
Armored bulkhead: 40 mm (1.6 in)
Barbettes for main turrets: 250 mm (10 in) above upper deck; 200 mm (7.9 in) between main and upper decks; 40 mm (1.6 in) director tower communication
Barbettes for secondary armament: 75 mm (3.0 in) above upper deck; 60 mm (2.4 in) director towers
Aircraft: 2 scout seaplanes
Electronics/not really historically accurate
Radar: Improved Brazilian made version of the SK air and surface search radar (includes Fire Control Radar).
Sonar: Dutch made sonar
FCS: Hazemayer Fire Control System (This system was based on a Dutch-German tachymetry design Tachymetry is a method for calculating firing angles and distances based on the rate of change of an object's position. The Hazemeyer system allowed for very precise aiming of anti-aircraft guns. It had three independently moving axes that trimmed the gun base, which helped maintain stability while firing and made the AA very accurate.)
Personalized Weapon: Winchester model 1897/m1897 gifted by the Americans
Summarized:
Holland is a 1047 class battlecruiser built in secret by the Royal Netherlands Navy with the design of the Scharnshorst. It is very similar to it's counterpart with a couple of differences here and there.

Human Looks: You imagine what he looks like but imagine he looks like a 15-17 year old guy
Abilities
First: Automatic resupply, refueling, and repairing when near a port, (also works if near just land but is rather a very slow process than just being near a port.)
Second: [redacted]
