Amerykański pancernik "kieszonkowy" - 29.10.2010

Przeglądając sobie ostatnio internet natrafiłem na taki oto okręt jak na rysunku poniżej. Według autora miałby to być amerykański „pancernik kieszonkowy”, uzbrojony w 6 dział 14,5 cala. Sens takiej jednostki nie bardzo pojmuję, ale że w rzeczywistości zbudowali oni przecież tak nieprzydatne jednostki jak wielkie krążowniki Alaska i Guam, więc czemu nie mieli by sobie czegoś takiego zafundować – w końcu stać ich było;-) A że i mnie jakoś ta sylwetka przypadła do gustu, to sobie zasymulowałem ten okręcik w springsharpie, z taką tylko różnicą, że kaliber dział ustaliłem na 14 cali, zamiast fikcyjnego 14,5 cala. Oto efekt:
