Ladder on the sail of the 688 unrealistic?

oscar19681 · 07-18-17, 02:11 PM

I was wondering something about the la class model. It seems to have a ladder on the left Side of the sail. But ive never seen a ladder in real pics myself. Is this accurate, and if so does anyone have any pictures of this?

The ladder on the sail was a Sturgeon thing, not a 688. http://www.navsource.org/ provides plenty of pictures of US Warships.

I know, but the 688 does have one in CW
