What is that on top of her superstructure? A Merry-go-Round??? - Awesome drawing though. Gives a whole new meaning to the term "superdetailed"!
That round thing on top is the 'Panorama'-radar, I found a picture of it from an installation at Berlin. Not much further info found on the net but that picture.http://www.radarworld.org/germany3.html |

The battlecruiser Hindenburg was rebuildt in 1937 to a look like 'Scharnhorst'. Casemats were replaced by 15cm-twins, a catapult was installed on an aft turret roof. 10,5cm-aa-twins were installed and finally the directors including 'Seetakt'-radar. This is how 'Hindenburg' looked in 1938. ![[ img ]](http://imageshack.com/a/img197/2324/g2xx.png)

No lengthening of the Hindenburg? Surely after some 20 years, he would need to have his machinery refitted or replaced? Also, though, in 1938, I can accept the straight bow, will he have an "Atlantik-buge" later on? Overall, a surprisingly competent rebuilding/modernization, though overly compact for my taste. - Again, lengthening by adding either a midship-section, or in the bows will cure that! (Also, I have referred to the vessel consistently with male pronoun, since that's the established German practice...) |

A handsome vessel indeed...the 'Atlantik bow' will only serve to increase this! Nice to see this thread back up and running! |

The small cruiser 'Emden' had a sister, the 'Wilhelmshaven'. She saw a massive rebild in 1940. She was equipped with 15cm-lightweight-twins and a completely new superstructure. Still not useful for frontline duty she saw training missions only. ![[ img ]](http://imageshack.com/a/img577/5886/mqr9.png)

It's back on! Love these ships, Ashley! The heavily gun-armed carrier is really awesome! I for one like the "Merry-go-Round"-radar. The WW2 edition of a Derfflinger looks stellar! |

most of these new drawings still have the tendency to go wrong way up.... especially that carrier. |

I don't think, a second major refit would be economic for such an old vessel. But however, I will do a Hindenburg with new machines and new bow. Just to see it.
