Default RORO and MPF Ships.

I know it is totally not realistic, but before the War in Iraq started, My platoon was detached from the Battalion and assigned to the POrt OPs company in Shuyiaba, Kuwait. We unloaded something like twenty-four MPF ships, and some additional RORO ships. THe Bob Hope and the SS soderman are the only names I remember but these things were Huge, Would there be anyway to make a single mission, and MOd these ship into the game. If saw these ships, you would want to sink them. Oh yeah there was one derlict that saw service in the Korean War, you could tell.

Hi!

Any modern ship could be included, but they would be the biggest ships in Silent Hunter III: USNS Soderman displaces 62,000 tons; the ultra-large crude carrier Jahre Viking displaces 564,000 tons, and survived direct bomb hits and fires in the Iran-Iraq War. Take that, Otto Kretschmer!

Pretty much,
If you can model it and import it?
You could have it in game.
You could model Great Britian and sink it if so inclined.

I just want to sink the Bob Hope it took us 18 hours to unload that bastard, I just want to sink Her, I think itwas around 72,000, or 76,000, not to mention the tankers and merchants I saw in that Port.
