Thanks AVAMA!

Can I use the Hull?

yes, you can! only show me later what you have done with it.

Your ships show a very own style. It works and they look good. Please do the smaller vessels!

I must first learn more about how the ships from these different time period looks like, then I must find a style that fits. then I come with them. If Goly or someone else does not say anything, then I could plan to start a topic where I and others can discuss the designs for this AU, etc.

Thank you.

I think this one will work fine!



D-class
Destroyer

Length: 121,73 meters
Speed: Version 1: 28,1 knots, Version 2: 33,7 knots. "D 372" Managed to reach a speed of 37.04 knots when it tried to escape from a larger enemy forces. Those destroyers who survived long enough to be upgrade in 1942, got new machinery, and managed to reach a speed of approx. 42 knots!

Armarment:
4*single 6in (later upgradet to 7.5 in)
2*single 4in
4* single and twins Torpedo tubes
Depth charges, some had mine instead, therefore, large aft deck.

This was a popular design in the Haram, it was built many boats of this type, as a clean Destroyer, a submarine destroyer, escort vessels, etc.

hull design was extremely successful, it managed to combine seaworthiness with high speed capacity, and capacity to carry heavy loads, which earlier vessels in Haram has had major problems with before.

The most famous of them is the Destroyer "G 334" which managed to lure an enemy battleship into a minefield and that way managed to get out of the situation it was in.

Fantastic, I love what you have done here!

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

Nice ... but ... just one thing. In your ship history there is always some kind of enemy battleship, battleship here, battleship there, battleship under every stone in Haram or what ? It's not bad, don't get me wrong. But why battleship was chasing destroyer ? big boys don't chase little fishes, they have their own destroyer escort or light cruiser to do that. Its look like Haram navy is battleship killers ... all of them.

I think you are streching the definition of a destroyer beyond the breaking point here. Armour, 6in guns, 4in secondaries...
Sounds very much like a small light cruiser to me.
And I doubt you're going to get 42kts out of them, no matter what you do.
