Only two minesweepers of the Raven class were ever built: USS Raven and USS Osprey.

Nice to see these... It just proves out how incredible USN really is, that it also has little gems that would easily gain glory for those who love smaller warships.
the drawing is also naturally quite superb ;)

Very pretty little ships, I could see them serving as survey ships as well

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

Golly says it all: another gem from the great undrawn potential of the USN :)

Auk class is essentially the Raven class with a diesel-electric powerplant instead of pure diesel in order to fit in degaussing equipment without installing a separate generator. Shown here in a common post-war configuration.
