Cenetian Carrier

Post any drawings you have made that do not pertain to an Alternate Universe scenario and are not a never-built design.

They look kind of like German 2cm Flak 38s to me, and I think you're right. I'd drop them down a deck level so the tops of the flak mounts were just below the edge of the flight deck.

They're actually 30mm, from here.
Anyways, fixed the AA height and added a forgotten anchor.

Revamping the thread (again) with another design, the Norden Falke class carrier. Time frame is laid down mid-1941, completed late 1943. She's a Fleet Carrier, so the airwing is currently at around 60-65, but I'm thinking that may be a bit under-sized. I also plan on adding one or two 5" turrets near the super-structure.

hmmm while a third carrier especially war time built seems like a bit of stretch for Cenet, especially during World War 2 where I'm sure, in return for changing sides, they could get an escort carrier or two, the drawing itself seems fairly plausible so far to me (the forward part of the hull seems a bit merchant ship like but thats probably just me and my crazyness). I'm curious what the air group may be?
