Well can you just post some in game pics of the Lexington because it's my favorite battle cruiser and I've very much wanted to play it, so I wish you luck making it. :Kaleun_Salute:

Really, they are your favorite? That's interesting to me since they weren't ever constructed. All I've ever seen of them is some basic drawings or "artist conceptions", but it's kind of cool how the hull looks like it was built for speed, and then everything above that looks bulky and slow lol.

IMO they probably would have been fairly useless had they been constructed, or would have at least needed some major changes by the time WWII started for us.

Hmmm, anyone know where to find a model of one of these ships?

Nice models, nice drawings. None of them was ever finished. Two were converted to aircraft carriers, and the other four were scrapped on the ways.

I wouldn't be surprised if he changed his mind and refused, the way you keep badgering him. One post is usually sufficient.
