I play metric, but if some length version is to download somewhere i'd be very greatful. All can do!

i play 100 realism without map updates so need length to calculate speed.

Now im watching lengths from a4 paper, but i have seen, that some guys had lengths in recon manual.
There have been multiple attempts over the years to do such, but one of the major problems with it is that no two mod set-ups are the same, specifically the Roster of the game. Even in FotRSU, there is a difference between the base mod, and if you add Nippon Maru and/or Nihon Kaigun to the mix, or even ships you have downloaded elsewhere... but, here are a couple of threads of interest:

ElCid97's Recognition Manual Overhaul - FotRSU-NM-NK Edition
which has Nippon Maru and Nihon Kaigun in it (the "NM-NK" portion of the name)
Download: Targeting Assistant V1
It can be rather complex to implement, but is workable, if you have that mod load-out...

MacGregor the Hammer's Ship Length Table
Download: Ship Length Table rev A
That is for FotRSU v1.26p, so would be missing quite a few ships added since, and is basically what you are using now...

As a side note, the next release of the mod will have ship lengths included in the RecManual, although there will not be a way to "automatically" enter the data into the TDC. For one thing, the US TDC did not use the length of the ship to determine range, but rather the height of the masts... anyway, we are still a little bit aways from release, in that we are in the process of attempting further checks of missions in the campaign. This will take a bit to do yet...
