going Tribal

[Irwin Forrester]

I was just at Usios' sight. Unless this is not news, the new projoct looks like a Tribal-class dd, but I could be wrong.

[Jagdflieger]

Looks like she's pretty far along, watertight and almost ready to slide down the ways. She should be a good companion class to Collin's Commonwealth DDs.

Ahhh the good ol' days... when I just built ships.

Nice work!

[Ravenna]

Looks good for convoy duty in the Med!

[JapLance]

Not a Tribal class indeed, they had two funnels. I'd say a J or K class.

Edit: after a look around the net, possibly a L-Class with 8x4in AA guns

Whatever she is, another ship that flies the White Ensign is always appreciated

[Collin]

Would agree with JapLance.."L" class destroyer, with 4" twin armament. All ships in this sub class were sunk by May, 1942.

(I wonder if Usiosan is using a Profile Morskie and a Polish waitress).

Regards Collin

It sure looks nice!

[Dirtman]

But alas .... Cap'n LongJock Collin is correct Attachment 25278 ... She is NOT a Tribal.
