The Wiki:
The SC-497-class submarine chasers were a class of 438 submarine chasers built primarily for the United States Navy from 1941-1944.[1] The SC-497s were based on the experimental submarine chaser, USS SC-453. Production began in 1941 and continued until they were succeeded by the SC-1466-class submarine chaser in 1944.
The SC-497s were off-shore patrol and anti-submarine warfare vessels. Seventy of the SC-497s were converted into patrol control crafts (SCC), 18 were converted into coastal minesweepers (AMC), and 8 were converted into patrol gunboats, motor (PGM).

It's been a hot minute since I've uploaded anything and with the release of the new War Thunder Ships patch I finally found some inspiration worth toiling over. I hope you enjoy sailing this beautiful sub chaser as much as I had building it. As always, please let me know if you have any suggestions for improvement or if there is a vehicle you would like to see recreated. Thank you so much for stopping by, and enjoy your voyage!!

They are testing heavy cruisers(CA) at the moment.

I know I love them but I’m waiting on Cruisers and BB’s and Carriers @Sgtk
@CptJacobson they are out!! They have destroyers available. And you can fly planes with them. It's incredible!!
I have but I’m waiting till they release the big ones @Sgtk
