TRJ Posted April 24, 2013 Share #701 Posted April 24, 2013 Italian Navy Heavy Cruiser Pola perhaps? The floatplane on the foredeck is a bit of a giveaway. http://forum.worldofwarships.com/index.php?/topic/2768-heavy-cruiser-zara/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristiano Posted April 24, 2013 Share #702 Posted April 24, 2013 It seems effectively the Pola, probably you are right. The plane on the foredeck was used not for fight but for exploration of the operating zone of the ship (it was a pre-radar period). It was launched with a catapult and after its duty it was recovered and placed again on the catapult with a crane.

st george Posted April 26, 2013 Share #709 Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) Other way round Andy. Kilkis used to be USS Mississippi and Limnos was the USS Idaho. But it is the Kilkis Sunk in the foreground.

TRJ Posted April 26, 2013 Share #711 Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) Now why did I think it might be difficult? Killkis, ex Mississipi, US pre dreadnought battleship, bought by Greece in 1914, sunk by German dive bombers In 1941. Technically I'll have to grant it to realworkingsailor, he got the name right of the vessel as depicted.

Hi Anja, Google 'laker', and you'll see that they have all something in common: kind of boxy appearance. Made to fit in the lcks of the canals between the lakes. (compare it to the Dutch 'motorspits' that is made to the specification of the locks in the Willemsvaart). As Andy is living in the lake area, many (if not all) of his mystery-ones are from the great lakes. Most of the Canadian but some of the from that other country. Jan PS it's unfortunate that MSW1 disappeared, I've seen this Andy pic before..... Anja 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
