Just for fun, these are some of the ships I would like to see added to SHV. Unfortunately, I dont have the skills to do it!!!
Feel free to add your own
Fairmile ML which bolstered the numbers of ships on the Navy roster considerably. Famous for Operation Chariot or the St. Nazaire raid, probably the most famous commando raid of all time

Little fishing boat

Tank landing craft, think these were in GWX??

T2 Tanker which I think would have been a better choice originally rather than the American oiler which appear to be everywhere despite only about 16??? being built

Mine Sweeper

Motor torpedo boat (MTB)

Fishing Dory, famous for the Dunkirk evacuation

Monitor. Not many of these about but I think it would be fun to have them, pretty much had their day when WW2 came about but were still used. For the uninitiated, a monitor was a fairly light craft with a battleship sized gun mounted on the front. I think this one had 2 15" pieces mounted in a single turret, which if taken as a single artillery piece would put her on a par with KMS Bismarck!!
