I recently encountered information on "The big three" Japanese troopships.
These were were luxury liners prior to the war and being requisitioned by the Japanese military in 1941 as troopships. The Tatsuta Maru, Asama Maru, and Chichibu Maru (later renamed Kamakura Maru) were all large ships of 16000+ tons, high speed of 19-21 knots, and long range. Kamakura differed from her her sisters as she had one funnel, not two.
These ships looked similar to some already present in TMO, so changed specs, did some cloning, and figured would add them to the roster for more targets as all three of these ships were eventually sunk by US submarines.
Sinking these ships will bring a lot of renown and likely lot of lifeboats and survivors.
All three of these large vessels were sunk by US submarines
ASAMA MARU
_______________
Torpedoed and sunk by USS Atule (SS-403) 100 mi (160 km) south of Pratas Island in the South China Sea
on 1 November 1944.
These are just clones of existing ships but with names, specs changed as they resemble these vessels.
See README titled "The Big Three" enclosed for full details and install information.
Note: Designed for use with TMO BH Update V2.0 and forthcoming V2.1. File can be modified to work with others.
