Actually, I'm starting to think those little ships are probably built just like icebergs.

Bisfark. the OTHER turret will probably miss twice as much. :rotfl:

They do look like the freaks of the Navy.

Default OK, but will they fit on my VIIB?

OK, but will the twin 15" fit on my VIIB?

I am not sure why this thread is back up

I think visually you can stick a big gun on a sub, but it won't work. Better to change your 88mm power...

Mmmm...someone should work on a mod to change the power of an 88mm, to a single 15" gun, pretty sweet.

It's been a while since I last saw this thread, but it still gives me a laugh:rotfl:

I just want a mod to mount the 15" twin turret on my sub, then I can truly have fun when I enter Scapa Flow.

The escorts won't know what hit them!!

I think the first one to shoot a broadside will lose. The recoil would surely make it turn turtle.

HMS Whatthefark - but then again I'm a brit (even if the Whatthefark does sound canadian).

A more interesting bet would be how far those tubs move backwards when they fire their main armament.
