I have been searching through the Shipbucket files for various British destroyers from the 1920's to early 1940's.

A to I Destroyers and Leaders (4-5 different versions)
JKN classes (really surprised HMS Kelly has not been done)
OPQR war emergency build DD's

Novice has done a C/Ca class ship which sort of covers the T class onwards

If the others have been done could someone please PM me a copy of the drawings, If they have not been done, does someone have them on their 'to do' list?

Thanks
Nigel

British destroyers might be a good source too ;)
btw, if you don't, expect me to bash the N class to an dutch version when you have it :P (if you do it, even better ;) )

Thanks for your comments guys,

Look forward to that info at some stage Novice, I'll do the E's first.

I think our Library has some good books on RN DD's so I will go there as well.

I've got some PDFs of Whitley's Destroyers of WW2. Not great drawings but they might be useful, as will the photos. I'll send them later this week when I get time.

Really good news if someone is actually starting to get them done, well waited additions atleast for my part. Perhaps, during this winter when I will have more time to draw, I could join the party with some drawing as well, but I don't want to grab anything from someone's eyes.

Does anybody have a reference (plan or photo) of the S class (class of 67 destroyers built from 1917 for the Royal Navy).

I'm thinking of making a modified escort but cant find the base :( WW1 destroyers.

(or a R class as they are close I think)

Thanks JSB

closest in the list is the repeat M class done by Youboat, they are the same size and layout, main difference was M's were coal fired r/s were oil fired.
