I was there in March 2006. Really intersting interactive exposition inside. Beer and sousiges were good too :)
Hm, looks like she is under reconstruction. Would be nice if they would bring her to 1945 outlook.

Yes, but the bridge configuration is post-war.

I was there a few weeks ago. The Belfast gives you a great impression of what it should have been on a battleship.

I was there in 06 as well. Nice looking ship. Shame none of the larger BB's were kept after the war. A QE Class would have been spectacular to see.

True but it would have been too big to fit into the Thames :p :lol:

Nice pictures. I agree that one of the British battleships should have been preserved, considering all that the RN did to win the war. It's a crime that the "Warspite" is nothing but razor blades now! :cry:

I looked at her a couple of weeks back and compared her to the museum in SH4 and as far as I could tell, she's a modified Fuji Class Light Cruiser.

It's a Town Class CL.
