Nevada's as built? Tasty. I have a thing for cage masts. I have some CT plans but I think they lack the detail needed. Pity the Nevadas can't pull off white and buff though. But you could do bright orange for the Bikini version! | | | Vive la France! | |

| I have some Floating Drydock plans in 1/96 for the 1944 version. I'll have to look and see if they have the as-built one. Bikini :) mmmmm.... | | | Battling: SMS Scharnhorst, SMS Baden

| I don't think they do. That my main annoyance with them. They have very good coverage of the WW2 versions but not of the as built. I guess backdating to Pearl would be doable but the bulges ruin the old girl's figure.
FDD does have a Pennsylvania in her 1913 fit.
For the Bikini version all we need now is a 1/96 B-29 | | | Vive la France! | |

| Go Pennsylvania 1913 to get the extra guns anyways! It will also give you four shafts to help with moss. It would also be a benefit if you're allowed to use the screws to help turn. | | | HMS Invincible

| Just posting the info on the Porter class DDs from Conways.
2597 tons full load.
381' 1" over-all.
37' beam.
2 shafts.....37 knots.
Eight 5"/38 (four twin turrets).
8 TT (two quad mounts).
Sounds like a nice little ship.

| Yeeessssss ...
There is a new French cruiser on the building boards right now. Hopefully, sea trials by next weekend, and ready for battle by Memorial day. :)
Right after that one is done, I have to build a Bearn by the beginning of July. | | Mike Mangus

| Oops. Just realized that I'm in the wrong scale. Heh.
Scratch the last post ... that's all in 1/144. Instead, sometime next winter there will be a French cruiser started in 1/96. The plan is to have that ship done, and perhaps a Bearn in 1/96 by August 1009. | | Mike Mangus
