Lovely job on the Omaha 6" Colo!

Heh, I just took it from Kitsune's Omaha CL.

I'll soon post an updated version of the 5"/25 as fitted on several BBs, CAs and CVs.

Now, I've drawn this small because at size, it's a pain and a half, but the difference is only about one pixel in each direction, but I had to make a sacrifice some place, and seeing as it's a very rarely used part it really shouldn't matter. I present, without further ado, The AN/SPN-44 radar:

RT-2491 an antenna of the CCA device AN/SPN-12 (see the pic).
Have it on my pc now, but just in the PNG-format.

Hawkeye - yeah, they are annoying little buggers - I pulled my data (and sources) from Preston E. Law's book Shipboard Antennas (thank goodness for libraries and book depositories).

Having hit a brick wall with adding/replacing parts on the sheet, I'm making an all new one (with the same format). Figure at least this weekend before I post any updates.

Colo - I plan on having the following guns on the new USN sheet:

• 16"/50 Mk 7
• 8"/55 Mk 71
• 8"/55RF Mk 16
• 8"/55 Mk 13/15
• 6"/47DP Mk 16
• 6"/47 Mk 16
• All 5" guns from the 5"/38 on inclusive.

While some of these are WW2 era guns, they were left on post-war ships, and as such for completeness I'm going to leave them on. Can I get a clean version of your 8"/55 Mk 12/15 please Colo?

What I am not sure should go on, and thing would be a better fit on the WW2 sheet would be the following:

• 16"/45 Mk 6
• 12"/50 Mk 8

Do you want my 5"/25 to include on your sheet?
