Conceptual design of Project Habakkuk aircraft carrier with 600 metres (2,000 ft) runwayProject Habakkuk or Habbakuk (spelling varies) was a plan by the British during the Second World War to construct an aircraft carrier out of pykrete (a mixture of wood pulp and ice) for use against German U-boats in the mid-Atlantic, which were beyond the flight range of land-based planes at that time. The idea came from Geoffrey Pyke, who worked for Combined Operations Headquarters. After promising scale tests and the creation of a prototype on Patricia Lake, Jasper National Park in Alberta, Canada, the project was shelved due to rising costs, added requirements, and the availability of longer-range aircraft and escort carriers which closed the Mid-Atlantic gap that the project was intended to address. - Wikipidia (Did I spell that right?) Ok,its really flippin huge,ans it lags for me,but i’m on a ipad after all,heres the controls: VTOL: rotation TRIM: elevation Roll and Pitch: AA guns Brake: Reverse. I’m probably gonna take a little break after this,This project was inspired by that wargaming video released for april fools,So I went off the model they showed on there,also,I made this ship EXTREMELY heavy in mass for a little but of weight realism.anyways,have a good day and enjoy this build!

I might try an attempt at a different model variation of habbakuk and make it as big as I can. @AdMiRaLSoviet
1:5,yea?
Yes,It was a april fools,posted on there official channel. but it inspired me to build it. @captainlevi820
is dis cv real in wows? or is it just an april fool event?
