Anyone care to help me identify a ship?

you have me convinced TLAM!

(I can't remember the stripe arrangement on the Russian national flag, I thought that if white was on top it was blending in with the sky)

She is an Algerian training ship Atakor. Built in the PRC as the Type 50A class.

I am impressed sir

Certainly saved me a bit of research work...and still may have got it wrong

Absolutely brillian TLAM. Not only do we now know that it is an Algerian training ship a long way from home, we also know they were munching at the time of picture taking. Love it

I came across this ship researching LWAMI V3.10. Looking for possible future US adversaries I looked at all the countries in the Middle East and North Africa. But Algeria didn't really have much that warranted inclusion in DW, I might revisit it and other med countries at a latter date as I am focused on Westpac and Northern Europe for LWAMI V3.11.

How is 3.10 coming along TLAM?

It is basically done, ML is finishing up the USNI entries. That should be the last piece of the puzzle. I'm not going to give a time to release since we have slipped on the last few deadlines.

I am "officially" working on 3.11 right now. I have completed a LNG carrier, a SEABEE, Japan's new AIP sub the Soyru, and have the ROKN's Dokdo Class LPD in development.
