While not correct, I usually include the length of the flight deck just so I know how long it is in total. On the image are three lines. - Blue is the freeboard as simmed. - Green is what I kinda expected the freeboard to be. - Red is what I think that the length (oa) would be as that is probably what you normally want to keep in mind when docking as well as the berth required for the ship when in port.
Looks nice but... When comparing the sim to the image, the length (oa) should be ~955 ft although it has no effect on the ship itself other than making it look more correct. The ship's draught in the image is ~25.5 ft and not 28 feet. Also forward castle length looks to be about 15.5% and not the 40% simmed.
Quoted you'd just have to admit to copying your Canadian betters, and paying a small fee No thanks. Can't have my troops die from embarrassment while flying copies of those hideous Canadian flying contraptions. Quoted It's worth remembering that Ise and Hyuga may have been intended to launch those aircraft, but there were no provisions for recovering them. More than any other of the IJN's wartime projects, this was very much a project fueled by desperation and expediency. I would think that it ...
Quoted I'd have to say it doesn't seem like a wise investment to modernize a pair of 1914 ships at this juncture. It is not but when did I ever do anything wise? Still it is true. It is the same as the Fuso and Yamashiro which received a partial rebuild a few years ago. The tonnage is better spent on something else which in the end I will probably just do. If anything, the four ships should have had the partial reconstruction instead of the refit back then and the mid/late 1940s is just too lat...
I was thinking about the Ise and Hyuga today at work. Unlike the Fuso and Yamashiro, they have not been modernized with a partial reconstruction... ... not yet anyway. I thought that for fun I should go a bit OTL with them, remove the X and Y turrets and put a flight deck aft for rotary-wing aircraft. Ise/Hyuga modification, Japan Senkan laid down 1914 (Engine 1949) Displacement: 33,727 t light; 35,601 t standard; 39,435 t normal; 42,503 t full load Dimensions: Length overall / water x beam x dr...
Quoted That is just fiction, what the Federation wants you to believe. We all know what really happened. :D Quoted On a more serious note, as a trials ship it'll be lobbing a bunch of things around Okay. Just make sure they don't lob it onto the Gyrodyne on the back of the ship by accident. :) Quoted On a tangent, i had long intended for the first missile to be fired off PEI in it's previous configuration (along the lines of the early jury-rigged Loon/Regulus launches), but I obviously haven't ...
So what kind of missile does it fire? After all, we are talking about Wesworld Canada.
Here. This looks better. Quoted 1150 tons for Miscellaneous Amenities and Superior this-and-that and Canadian SuperScience!™
He's been around so long in Wesworld that he belongs in a museum! :D? I kinda miss Dr. Belloq trying to steal away the glory from Indy...
Hmmm... very suspicious that nothing is mentioned about the cargo she was carrying (OTL according to wiki, she "was in ballast at the time"). Must have been carrying something bad that the press is not allowed to know about. :)
Quoted I'm not sure whether its best to sim the launcher and missile magazine as a gun mount or just rely on misc weight. It was done more for the 2" barbette that would appear in the sim report than the gun mount itself, though it could easily be done with just the miscellaneous weights (and the 100 ton per launcher + rockets is probably more than enough). I just like it more this way. :) (also looking at the sim the way it is, it should be obvious that the launchers are superfiring the main g...
The Anano is a test platform for the Funryu 4 (‘Raging Dragon’) Ship Launched Antiaircraft Rocket and is based on the Ashida class design. The superfiring main gun turrets were removed from the Ashida design and replaced by the Raiun ('Thundercloud') launch system. 75mm and 25mm guns, 61cm torpedoes and all ASWs were also removed while a few additional 40mm mounts were added. 1 inch protective plates cover part of the deck and the superstructure near and around the launchers. Anano, Japan Experi...
Hopefully no errors... At the end of Q3, Komaki still required 2900 tons and not 5096 tons (which was what was required at the end of Q2). Also noticed that I forgot to put Fuso and Yamashiro back to the completed section in the OOB. Japan's Naval Developments - Q4/1948 A. Industrial Allocation 27/27 factories producing warship material = 27,000 t. 6 tons stockpiled materials available. 0 tons transferred to Japan. 1,031 tons from scrapping. Total materials available: 28,037 t. 27,850 t are used...
Hopefully. No doubt you looked with Google as well and encountered the same amount of info on it as I have (which is pretty much nothing).
If it is like the OTL one, then it would be a Radar Vehicle. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FV300_Series
Quoted For the moment though, he contemplated the activities required to establish a new network of operatives, informants, and henchmen. Well, looking at the James Bond lists, there are plenty of potential candidates around for that new network Blofeld will be a very busy man, digging through all those applications and arranging many interviews... Blofeld: "*looks at papers* And... you are Julius No, right?" Dr. No: "Doctor Julius No. Yes. Blofeld: "And you do what exactly?" Dr. No: "I special...
What?! I have got lots of faith... in you turning it into a great adventure!
... so reading that last bit, either there will be no one left of the team to be picked up or or the submarine that is supposed to pick them up will lie on the bottom of the South China Sea...
October 7, 1948 Takayanagi Masao looked around the bridge of his current ship. For the 44 year old captain from Osaka, Yamato was quite different from his previous command, the battleship Nagato. It had been about a week since he had taken over command of the Yamato from Aruga Kōsaku who had been promoted to Rear Admiral last month. Aruga was familiar with Takayanagi's work aboard the Nagato and was confident that the new skipper would have no problems with the new ship under his command. "Bewar...
8 new ASW destroyers to counter those Chinese paper dragons? Surely Britain is not afraid of them.
