AHHH that'll explain it then lol though there look to be some differences amidships? My Fletcher has 2 torpedo racks, 1 between the funnels and 1 behind the rear funnel? Hard to see in the pics but are those extra AA guns instead of 1 of the torpedo racks?

Post by: bikerdude999 on April 17, 2012, 12:28:43 am: Thanks for the extra pic, though I do wish I'd bought the german 1 now as it looks better IMO with the AA gins instead of the torpedos.
