Hello Captains

here you can get 2 new Destroyer-types for your SH4-Fleet.

1.) The Benham Class Destroyer

2.) The Benson Class Destroyer

Both Vessels are integrated in one Mod.

Installing :

If you wanne use this Ships in your SH4 Version you first have
to make a copy of your names-file in your roster-directory
and copy it to the roster-directory in this mod.

Then you have to add following lines to the Name-File below
the entry DDSomers=Destroyer Somers Class

DDBenham=Destroyer Benham Class
DDBenson=Destroyer Benson Class

After this is done you can enable this Mod via JSGME !

Beautiful, good work.

My father-in-law was on a Gleaves class DD.

The only easy way of differentiating the two new classes from one another was that the Bensons had flat-sided stacks while the Gleaves’ were round.
The two classes were similar designs prepared by two sources, Bethlehem (Benson) and Gibbs & Cox, (Gleaves) with small numbers of ships authorized in each fiscal year.
As the war threat increased, the Navy ordered repeat builds of the two classes.
All these repeat ships were ordered with only four 5" mounts due to severe topweight problems with the initial ships with the #3 5" mount being replaced with an AA mount. Ships in service had their #3 mount removed during refits.

With a little change you could add a Gleaves class with 4 5" mounts.
