Very nice work. Would sure like to give the Lexington class battlecruiser a spin.

What ship is that Karle?
|
Karle, I would assume that depending on the amount of 15" ammo the brits had (not a lot, and I don't think they would have the ability to start up another foundry to make ammunition, I think it would be safe to assume that they would have mounted british guns on her. But I don't know if they would go full-on and put BB cannon on her. I think after they reverse-engineered her they would just use her for target practice or something of the sort. but if they were to build a KGV superstructure then they would probably put KGV guns on her too.

Maybe I'm wrong, but didn't the majority of British large capital ships use 15" ammunition? The KGVs and Nelson/Rodney were the only exceptions to that rule I think. I would think they would have had more 15" ammo then any other size. This ship is an interesting concept, but even if a nation captured a ship this large, I don't think they would go to the trouble of reconstructing it. For example, the Allies came into the possession of Jean Bart, but made no attempt to rebuild or reconstruct the vessel for use. |
The older Ships (Renown, Hood, Queen Elizabeth, Revenge) I believe used 15", Nelson used 16" and the KGV used 14"
I'm not too sure what ammo production would have been. |
What ship is it?
Well, it looks like it could be one of the post WWI Tillman designs.
