I decided to try making a warship for a change to get some experience. Here's a "Perth" class cruiser in a rough early war skin. ATM I'm trying to find more information on minor structural features so that the superstructure, etc is improved. This will be available very soon, separate from the freighters and tankers I've made. The parent unit is a "Dido", with the Tribal's bridge and several parts from the "King George V" and T-2 tanker.
It's sad to read about what happened to this class. "HMAS Hobart" was the only one to survive WWII. "Sydney" was lost with all hands, and "Perth" had most of her crew KIA when she was sunk; afterwards hundreds of the survivors died in Japanese POW camps...

Wow, great to see an Australian ship! Would fit quite nicely in the Med and Indian Oceans.
But at the risk of being a pedant, HMAS Perth, Hobart and Sydney were actually modified Leander Class Light Cruisers, also known as Sydney Class Light Cruisers (but not to be confused with the WWI Sydney Class Light Cruiser which was a "rebadged" Chatham sub class of the Town Class). I don't know why uboat.net refers to them as Perth Class Light Cruisers. From the offical RAN site... http://www.navy.gov.au/spc/history/ships/perth1.html http://www.navy.gov.au/spc/history/ships/hobart1.html http://www.navy.gov.au/spc/history/ships/sydney2.html Also lists armament for you. FYI there was a Perth Class...Destroyer based on the US Charles F Adams Class Destroyer and built in the 1960's. HMAS Perth, Hobart and Brisbane were the names of these three ships, perhaps hence the possible confusion. Last edited by JScones; 08-29-06 at 01:42 AM. |

@iambecomelife. Just realised I was too busy being pedantic.
You may find it easier to obtain profiles of Leander Class ships (ie Ajax, Archilles). If so, then the main difference between it and the Sydney class was the second funnel and the Walrus seaplane instead of the Swordfish. Externally, that's basically it. Most changes were "under the hood". Leander: Sydney: Want some more photos? Go to www.awm.gov.au and click on "Collections Database" then "Collections Search" and search for any of the three ships. HMAS Hobart will bring up some nice onboard photos. A few of HMAS Perth show an interesting camo pattern. Hope this helps. Last edited by JScones; 08-29-06 at 07:48 AM. |
