BTW - remember the "Fast Cargo" from SH2? I was reading the unit file a couple of days ago, and it said the model was based loosely on the C3.  Doesn't look like a C3 to me...

Yes, I remember them all too well. Again, I don't like to be overly critical but they really looked out of place. I wonder why a naval architect would design a ship with the funnel placed in front of the bridge. You'd have a giant cylinder obstructing the forward view & spewing soot toward the deck officers - not good at all for navigation.

I saw two specials over the weekend on the history channel about the Tirpitz and Graf Spree and they showed stock footage of convoys and in one of them I'm almost certain I recognized the "Fast Cargo" with stack in the middle and bridge aft.
