HN has 4 tankers, they are not categorized in any particular class, but they are 2 distict types, of 2 almost identical ships each, so I'll make one of each. Here is the first, not 100% finished yet, HN Zeus A-375

There's no such thing as "nothing left to draw" If you can down 10 pints and draw, you're doing alright by my standards

They are not the most handsome ships, I grand you. But they are not general support ships either, and they operate littorially in the Agean, so they don't need much seakeeping. HN unlike other navies, has all its bases on islands, for example the HQ of the fleet where most of the ships and equipment is, is on Salamis island, the rest of the fleet is on Crete island, on Poros island, and a dozen more smaller bases. So HN has 10 ships like the above, 4 oil tankers and 6 water tankers and many small trasport ships that ferry people and supplies there from the mainland. So reaching a naval base in Greece is difficult, but on the other hand, the warships have to travel short distances in case of need

finished, only suggestions left

I am not going to make all 10 tankers since some are identical, but here are some that I will do:

the only thing I want to see (on all the ships you made) is an underwater hull. try to search for refs for it. if you really can't find one, that's ok, but when you can draw the underwater hull, you do it ;)

I have almost no photos of underwater hulls of any HN ship. But I have info about their draft, so with the single information that this ship has 4,2 m draft, I came up with this:

I think the shaft is too much foward IMO

simply knowing the draft doesent really give much info about drawing the underwaterhull. Inventing them just by imagination is really not the SB way (though nothing prevent to do so in AU realms) So i suggest to submit only the above-water parts for uploading untill you can find more accurate info of the underwater parts.
