Thanks ace for the links about the 5"/38.I am interested in seeing the horizontal ASROC reloader,since my Messimvia Class FFG and Kimon Class DDG used it.In real life,this reloader was used by Garcia/Brooke and Knox,right?

all I could find.

While I Searched I found this one http://www.alternatehistory.com/discuss ... 1256639578

I found also out about USS Barney ddg 6. http://www.uss-barney-ddg6.org/
If someone are going to visit here in the future, they can take a picture of the ships blueprints that's hangs bellow deck close to the CIC. That should give us something on the ASROC.

Actually I have visited an Adams Class DDG,in Hellenic Navy Open Week in 2001 or 2002 (I do not remember which).My DDGs have a reloaded similar with Knox/Garcia Classes.

P.S The first link seem to be the horintal reloader,right?

Hey guys, some engineering stuff I created for my latest project.



From left to right...

It took me awhile to find these and I will be honest I am still trying to piece together how these systems work. Luckily the first pick has people standing right next to it for scale. This is my original art.

2.) Caterpillar Marine 16M32C Generator 7.8MW (STB/TOP/FRONT). References:

4.)Caterpillar Marine 8M46DF8 Propulsion Engine. References:

#4 is acelanceloet's from the first page. I was researching small generators for one of my ships and ran across these references and then noticed these looked just like something I saw somewhere... The 16M32C/12M32C were started using acelancloet's 8M46DF8 as a base.

quite nice, I will add them to the first post soon
(also, I cannot take credit for that first drawing of the engine, somebody else mad that for me)

Ah, I just assumed such since you are the keeper of the parts sheet. My apologies (and to whomever drew it!).

From a small joke I did (not a good joke, but...)

added bofors Model 1950 twin 120. the turret itself is also redrawn.

some shit that I have got, but if there is something specific you want me to search on i would do that, just tell me-

UK:


Model of Mark I Turret for HMS Queen Elizabeth at the Imperial War Museum, London, UK
Note the overlapping turret top plates, the turret race, the overhead "grab" used to transfer shells out of storage to the stalk and the hopper used to move cartridge bags from the magazine
Also note that shells were stored horizontally in bins. This meant that any significant change in shell length - such as the change from 4crh to 6crh projectiles - required modifications to the storage bins.
