The ship in 2008. It has since been demolished.

Hi mate!

Well, from the pic i guess this was the Hela (1940).
My WIP ship is not her, but you're really near the correct solution!
(same role, different unit).

Carl Peters from SH5. It's easy.

Will there be more difficult questions?

Yep! With a lot of reworks, but she's Carl Peters, or Adolf Luderitz, same class.

More difficult questions? Yes, just not today! :D

she's also new to me, before looking it up I figured she was a training cruiser.

my dream? I-8 or a similar IJN boat which visited France, or perhaps a Flying P-Liner

Have you considered doing a Patreon, VonDos?

If i well remember, an I400 converted from SH4 by miner1436 and a "Pamir" Flying P-Liner by nautilus42 are avaiable somewhere, ready for sh3 :03:

I know Patreon, but i prefere to stay on SubSim with all contents free for everyone in the community. This is something i do in my free time.
Also, most of the units are also based on someone other work, or are realized with someone help, this is "VonDos AND COMPANY" shipyard, after all, so i think it would be a little unfair gain money on their free work!

Best regards, :salute:

Hi everyone!

Today, another small, extremely easy quiz for you!

"Guess the new WIP ship!"

A random example of an huge "class" of ships, better defined by their role.

Can you identify her?

https://i.ibb.co/HxnCpzM/SH3-Img-19-...-52-33-404.jpg

Note, this unit is not intended to show a single historical unit, i'ts largely modelled on one specific ship, but i'd like to use her in order to "impersonate" a large kind of ships, so some details can be a little "generic".

ps, don't look at skin, please. I've reused a Pinguin textures, while waiting for new ones.

Best regards,
Vd

could this be considered a Vorpostenboot, or is it too big for that classification?

It's a little big. They also had some different roles. Both were used like escorts and A\A, but our mistery ship was also used for something other...

This was a tipical example where i took inspirations, but there was an huge number of them:
