HMS Duke of Kent (BB-1940)

#1 Post by Krakatoa »

While I was drawing the triple 15", 16" and quad 14" designs for the proposed King George V class, I did wonder if a twin version had been considered using the 15" mk2 guns.

Thats actually a really good looking ship, Krakatoa!

Very beautiful lines, more balanced design with 2 turrets each end.

Huh? You've answered your own question Kim. I like the CoA because, weather it's drawn or not, it's a beautiful motive.

Now, IF the CoA were to be drawn, then it would be uprated to a FANTASTIC CoA :D

Anyway, is this a fleeting visit Kim old chap, or will you be hanging round for a while :?:
