Default [REL] Gangut

Tired of endless patrols in the north atlantic where your only opponent's the frozen wind on your face , here something which'll make you apprehend your patrols in the great north from another eye

Gangut battleship (russian) it's my first ship so if you have comments or suggestions they are welcome DL in signature

Default Not Gangut!

Sorry, mate! This ship is NOT russian Gangut-class battleship.

At first - some Wikipedia

Secondly, reconstruction between WWI and WWII gave ships very distinctive look (first funnel) - see here


Somewhere I have seen detailed description and blueprints but can't remeber where. If I find them, I'll let you know.

the ship 's a simple KGV clone with slight modifications cranes , plane , catapult removed and a new skin . the only 3D tool i master a little 's Gmax and i couldn't find any object importer for Gmax so .. i made this ship for me first to enhance my russian traffic if you don't like it nobody forces you to install it .

It isn't.
No, I mean it really. I like it. A lot!

Dreadnoughts and battleships are some of the finest looking pieces of machinary the human kind has produced. They all have a beauty in them

And russians DO produce lovely looking things, not just BBs and airplanes, but also submarines. In fact, the only thing I don't like about russian designs is their soviet era automobiles :hmm:
