Quick question...

[Rami]

Hey guys,

What is the ship "shgun" supposed to represent?

The only ref in the CFS1 pilots book is to a british made MTB 5002. MTB 5002 is a Fairmile D (Modified) but the model dosen't look like it. Looks to be some kind of (british) Vosper made motor torpedo boat. The closet that I can find is the Vosper made MTB 77.

Uboat.net say the MBT 77 is a Vosper 72 feet-type class and there were 177 of them made.

Allen, your CFS depth of knowledge is a marvil.

For CFS1 to CFS2 I looked into seeing what the CFS1 ships should really be. I looked in the back of the CFS1 pilots book that list some real names/classes for ships. Still knew where the CFS1 pilots book was so just a quick look to see if any real gunboat or torpedo boat was listed.
