The number of Mk 51 is... immense.

Fine drawing. What is your reference on the various underwater ports whose names I have forgotten? I'd love to know what they are individually.

Yeh, you need that amount of Mk.51s to control all those guns!

The baseline for this and the other Iowa drawing is the illustration of Iowa as built from Friedman's Battleships.

I definitely don't want to be the guy responsible for repairing the Mk.51.
