here that the battlecruiser Yavuz was acquired by the Ottoman Empire in 1914 and not 1912.

Finally I discovered the original source of those WWII and WWI fleet graphs and it is the www.naval-encyclopedia.com. There you can read some excellent naval history articles, to download other graphs or you can purchase the same graphs in high resolution in their online shop!
