Here's some stuff I've been workin on: ![[ img ]](http://img201.imageshack.us/img201/5162/usswasplhd1.png) ![[ img ]](http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/2750/sh60r.png) ![[ img ]](http://img401.imageshack.us/img401/9206/mh60s.png) Before the "warmed-over Makin Island" comments start about the Wasp (LHD-1), let me assure you all that I started from the Wasp hull and built from there. The Seahawks are my personal representation of the 2nd gen (-R&-S) Seahawks. |

Very nice. Always good too see more gators on the bucket. Considering the Makin Island has completely different propulsion from the Wasp, I wouldn't say you're warming over an old drawing at all. The Makin is practically a sub-class of the Wasp-class, so it's appropriate to have both drawings on SB. You may wish to put an Osprey or two on there, especially considering the CH-46 is quickly on its way to being retired by the Marine Corps. |

Apologies for the double post, but it does have "LHD" on the side, I have pictures. |

The US Navy puts its hull classification letters on its LHAs and LHDs to avoid confusion between the Tarawa-class (LHAs 1-5), and the Wasp-class (LHDs 1-8), which would otherwise look very similar, especially in poor visibility conditions. |

Thanks, I already have most of the pictures. I am only using pictures of LHDs 1-4, because Bataan was built to a modified design, and so different from the Wasp. As far as I can tell, the funnels and windows are spot-on, but if you see anything that I missed let me know. Thanks. Gator |
