I.J.N. FUSO 1944

[nerdling]

I just did some reading on the fate of the Fuso. Sunk early on during the Battle of Surigao Straight by destroyers firing torpedoes. Her sister ship then went on to get ripped apart by ships that survived the Pearl Harbor attack.

Interesting looking ship . It looks to have modern ( WW II ) feature and yet it has some that remind me of the earlier battle wagons .

Cheers, Christian B)

That would be true being built during the WW I time frame.

Hmm , the hull really makes me think of latter times though which made me wonder . The upper structure looks more WW I style.

Cheers

Which came first, that bridge or Jenga?

I'd hate to be on the top level in a big swell or air attack.

Looks great so far.

That would really suck! I think I read some of them were 130' above the water!
