[FICTIONAL] The Black Horse class battleship is a French BB, very heavily armed & armored with 12x14" guns in three Quad turrets, and 4x6" at the front of the ship in casemates, 2 on each side and carries 6x3.5" Flak cannons for some seriously heavy AA and most importantly it is equipped with 16x21" TT in 4 quad mounts which is its defence if any enemy gets close (10-12KM) and in terms of armor, its protected by a formidable 16" belt armor and a secondary inner belt of 5" and a third belt with 2" thickness, the deck has a 7" armor and secondary inner deck with a thickness of 3" and a Superstructure armor of 2.5" and the conning tower armor is 24" and it has a Keel armor of 4" and has a lot of bulkheads.It has a desplacment of 40K and a top speed of 52 km/h and a crew of 1730+20 air crew, It carries 4 seaplane fighters and 2 kingfishers (which were installed when it was in New York) and served under the British command.

The Cheval Noire was built in 2 years from 1932 to 1934 and entered service in 1935 and was deployed to operate from the Port of La Rochelle and a year later to Port of Brest, and after France fell to the Germans this BB escaped to the Port of Southampton and then was attacked by Condors & Heinkels when it was anchored there, fortunately it only sustained very light damage and after that it was sent to New York for modernization and light repairs payed by the British and after that it came out in 1941 and it started patrolling around the Canadian, American & Mexican Coasts and escorted a few convoys to the Soviet Union. And in 1943 it's day came, as it escorting a 12 ship convoy to the Soviet Union Port of Murmansk it's convoy was intercepted by 3 Kriegsmarine DD's, a CL and a H-39 Class BB. Short story is that the Cheval Noire came on top and Sunk the H-39 and the CL and sustained medium damage, while it's escorts of 4 Fletcher DD's Sunk 2 DD and heavily damaged the other to where it was scuttled 30min later the battle lasted around 1.5 hours the convoy only lost one T2 Tanker hit by a lucky shot from Hutten the H-39 class BB.

After the war the Cheval Noire was scrapped in 1951 and it's A Turret was preserved in a Naval museum.

    @Mitsuri8Aviation The ship doesn't use bombs, it uses cannons firing normal shells. IDK what your talking about 😂

    @Bobthegeneral69 You need to change the Barrels (Cannon) that are with Bomb, and Replace with the Cannon that will be Using Ammo (Normal, HE), Test the Cannon Until You Make Sure It's Right (Leave it Saved as Sub Assembly)
