Alaska outclasses Deutschland before the fight develops

How would a Deutschland-class ship fare against an Alaska-class large cruiser?

Very badly; Alaska's advantage is so large that Deutschland is outclassed from the start.

The panel treats the matchup as decisively one-sided. Alaska's scale and combat power would end the engagement before Deutschland could respond effectively. The ships are not near equivalents simply because both occupy awkward classification boundaries. Actual capability matters more than category labels.
