Default Ship Require Identification Chemical Goods Freighter

This Ship Here
SCT = Chemical Goods Freighter or Small Coastal Tanker




I couldn't find any world war two ship match to this and I have serious doubt this is a world war two ship at all. The thing above the mast is clearly a radar not a standard wwii merchant equipment.

SHO Ship Identified Lake Class Cargo Ship

Just found out there is another group of ship looks quite like this one


KQS = Small Costal Merchant



The matching ships are US made WWI era Lake cargo ship
USS Lake Shore


USS Lake Superior



USS Lake Champlain


USS Lake Huron




SS Lake Sunapee






These are not 100% the same ship but the general profile matches and the ship dimesions within reasonalbe range.Consider the model quality we currently having now,I say the model matches these ships fair enough.
