It's old and undetailed and I don't like looking at it. Lol.

That's why I'm asking Darth Panda if he plans to redo it, Colosseum. Given that he's done the other American SSBNs... I felt it only natural to ask him to try his hand at a better Ohio-class. No offense, Colosseum.

I don't care... that drawing is from spring of 2008! No offense taken... if I remember right, the drawing is spot-on as far as scale and measurements go, but woefully incomplete with detailing. I could not find adequate sources for putting on all the fancy-schmancy submarine stuff.

My expertise is USN surface combatants 1930-50.

And you're doing an excellent job at it.

I had plan to redo it myself with Colo's permission when I (re)drew all the SLBMs of the USN, but with a severe lack of reference pics for details, it proved impossible. :/

It's an active nuclear weapons system - details are intrinsically going to be hard to come by.

I don't live too far from Naval Base Kitsap and Submarine base Bangor where Ohio's are stationed, but even I couldn't do as well as Colo did back in '08.

Well, Colo's Ohio is pretty solid. About all I can tell it needs is something to mark the waterline when the boat's surfaced, and the part below that to be colored red. Am I right?

No, it's a submarine. subs usually colored same color below and above the waterline.

Okay... Most of the US SSNs and SSBNs on the site have the red bottoms, with the notable exception of the Ohio-class. A case in point: USS Lafayette (SSBN-616).
