Hi Ace,

The radar, the GMLS, the weird munchkin 55mm, the underwater hull ("hull built from scratch"...?) or that forward director? I'm not sure precisely which bit you're talking about?

launchers and radar, mostly. both have been replaced by newer parts. the radar for example is the dutch LW-08, replaced years ago.

That's actually a real design. Developed by the Kriegsmarine at the end of WW2 as a new medium flak, it never went past the prototype stage.

Hi DG_Alpha,

Yep, familiar with the Gerat 58 55mm - used a couple of the AU ones on the Drachenodem - but the ones on here have scaling artifacts on them and are 9px high from base of mount to top of gun shield - that'd be good for an AT weapon, I think, but doesn't match the parts sheet drawing and I wonder if it would have the room to elevate properly in such a short mounting?

I think they get it from the main page. there is an subfolder in the part sheet folder called "Old Parts Sheets".

Admin - delete that shit. we have done a ton of works, I, Ace.., colo, Hood, Portsmouth bill, etc. but that folder is a joke, it is like you admin kids are making a joke of us!

They are there because there are parts there that are not located any place else.

Only use that sheet when you can't find what you want on other sheets located on the forum.

I could, but then i just get so damn nostalgic of looking "that shit"... its where we begun and what we actually used. It defined much of SB in its early days.
