Splendid work! Love this thread.

I fully agree on Eswube's statement!

Fine looking carrier indeed. Not sure about having two catapults at such an early date but I can't imagine it being out of the realm of possibility. The nice fully enclosed hull and hangar is good too.

Regarding catapults, I was not sure either but I looked at the british earöy ar carriers (Ark Royal and Victorious) and they had catapults, so I tried it aswell.

HEre comes the final swedish carrier, the Tre Kronor, you saw her side view a while ago, now also with top view.

wondering why you have an mix of dutch and US radars, in some cases doing the same thing (for example SPQ-9 and WM-20)
also, may I suggest the use of the latest WM of the dutch parts sheet?

Superb drawing as always. I can't help noticing that several parts of the side and top view doesn't line up though... mostly the "shelves" for the 57mm guns, but also a bit on the superstructure and the elevator on the side... Plus, the flight deck seems to be longer on the top view than the side one, and looks cut-off aft.

She is using
the WM02/ PS-47 (only dutch radar onboard)
the SPS 39 (PS-39) and PS-401 (CSF Saturn) some navradars and 9LV mk1 FC system.

Ok, I see something has happened to the top view,,, :-S

LW-01/02 is on board, the large search radar. I do not know the WM02, or do you mean WM 20? the egg?
and what is that large shpere on top of the bridge? I thought it was an SPQ-9A...

I meant the LW-02 (PS-47 in RSwN)
My first sketches had the Type 965M

I right now going thorug my sensors so there will be just a few kinds, nt the most fun sensor for that kind of ship.

The Lappland turns a gray cold day into sunshine....... Might be the best drawing made so far. Maybe some auxiliaries next? A collier would be nice.
