Here is an update: ![[ img ]](http://img842.imageshack.us/img842/2996/usalka114ussdurham.png) and a couple of questions... What heli was used on this? i can't find any ref or photos to this. And what radar is on top of the mast? can't find any info on this either... |

The US Navy has used the CH-46 for VERTREP (Vertical Replenishment, or supply movement by helicopter) for the last 35 - 40 years. I don't think that this class of ships was in service before that. |

Top radar is almost certainly SPS-10. Helo-wise, with no hangar I'm not sure she'd have carried a helo in service. |

Source: "Seemacht USA", Page 603 Heli: UH-46 (temporary) Radar: AN/SPS-10 It looks like odd in your reference line drawing. Same in the case by thiels LST-1179 reference line drawing. |

her stern is a bit wrong. it has that type of cruiser stern some are bit flat and round in the same time. so you need a line that shows that. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/c ... _1983.JPEG |
