Usino-san has One in the Dry-Dock

:woot::woot: Do I DAR belive my eyes? Could it really be true? Or am I just dreaming pipe dreams! I belive I see a "Fast Torpedo Boat (Destroyer)" in dry-dock #1.

I've been fiddling with the stock cfs2 shj_torpedo boat dp and the armament IE artillery/AA MG's they has almost put me over the edge:faint: There are 2 sub classes Chidori "Tomozuru"-class (4) & Otori-class (8).:friday: Anyway I shall get the dp's out shortly.

So one can place the correct ship in the support of the Naval defense area. The IJN & IJA where woo-fully lacking in convey escort ships. 2nd-class Destroyers, Torpedo Boats, Minlayers, Minesweeper's, Patrol Boats & Sub-Chaser's did yeoman's work in escort duties thought the war.


What say ye about #1 dry-dock?

Maybe it's a replacement for the stock "Tidori"?

High knuckle on the bow?

My guess is a RN CL - Dido or Arethusa class maybe??

My two cents worth.....HMAS Sydney II (and hopefully her sister ship HMAS Perth) a modified Leander class light cruiser.

many of the early japanese ships were british-built, it definitly appears to be a british/american style hull. I'm hoping its' 1930s' US destroyer, but who knows:gossip:
