~1935ish German Minesweeper Blueprint

[Chad]

To ease my curiosity and increase my knowledge on the subject manner, does anyone have around a 1935 German minesweeper blueprint?

If also possible (I know beggars can't be picky) but also I'd like to see the different rooms/compartments and stations around the boat.

I have faith in you guys! :up:

Dowly! Those are more than perfect :D

Thank you very much! If I may ask, where did you get them? I know Daemon hosts his thing on the Dreadnought project and Horsa I believe runs the site.

Thanks again!

Looking at the blueprints again, mainly at the machine rooms (engine rooms I'm assuming), does anyone have any pictures of these monsters?

And are they 2 levels or one big one with stairs to the bottom of the second floor?

From my perspective, though I could be wrong, it looks as if there are three floors to this thing, the deck (outside), first floor which is where the crew quarters are, with all the bunks, and the second floor, where the engine and rudder rooms are..

I would like to know how the artillery fire direction was arranged on the '35 minesweepers. I know there was space for a fire control officer on the top bridge together with the 3 m. rangefinder crew. But to what extent did the FCO actually direct the fire. Anybody know - or where to find such information?
