Cool! I've always liked the Project-138 cruisers, and it's a real treat to see them in shipbucket form.

With a displacement of 17.500 tons standard and the dimensions at the waterline: 217.66 (waterline)-225,56 (maximum) x 23.58 m x 6,15m and depth 12,8m. Fitted out with 4 steam turbines and 6 boilers delivering 170.000 hp allowing a astonishing speed of 36 knots! She was armed with 4-203mm triple turrets, 6-90cm twin turrets, 4-75mm guns, 6-40mm guns, 20-20mm guns, 2 airplanes launched with a catapult, 2 triple 533mm torpedo launchers and 4 mortar launchers. Armour for instance was horizontal 755mm, the barbettes 150mm and the battle tower 100-150mm. Note: the other two ships, with larger main armament were other plans, to buy the armament from the German Gneisenau and Scharnhorst when they would have been refitted with 380mm guns in place of the original 280mm SK guns, they would probely have been sold to the Spanish to add them one these cruisers. In 1936 when the Spanish cival war was going on, when the battleship Alfonso XIII (British build) (13) sunk by the Republicans by Torpedos in the war, The main armament of 12-inch (305-mm) guns were removed and dropped into the sea, to be later recovered by the Dutch-build salvage vessel Kanguro (could spelled as Kanguru/Kanguroo aswell) (originally intended to recover lost submarines) and salvage and repair them to place them on a other cruiser design when It wa sure the Germans could not sell the guns.

Great work Alex. Really sleek and good looking ships with heavy armament. No doubt they might have given the Allies some sleepless nights had they been built. |

It would be useful if you'd add a bit of text to the drawing saying which variant it is. |
