I'm just thinking, could the Hipper's qualify as battlecruisers, or are they just old style heavy cruisers with a bit more armor and speed?

How would you rate the Hipper's? They had pretty good guns and speed, but are just seen as heavy cruisers most of the time.

It's a shame we didn't keep the Alaska's operational along side the Iowa's. They would have made great cruise missile and AA missile platforms, similar to the Cleveland's that were converted to the Albany class guided missile cruisers.
