The ships can be identified as either British (Kent Class) or Spanish (Canarias class). So you could make an argument that they could conform to axis/allies team structure depending on the flag you fly.
Except that (apart from the hull) Kent and Canarias don't look much alike, to say the least. But if you're going fictional, the sky's the limit, I suppose.
I'm planning on 3-D printing the superstructures. I could make two versions as long as the hull and inner-workings don't change
