Cruiser,, fear,,

Title : fear
Type : light/anti-air cruiser

Short description

A ship of this type does not have a very long firing range, but at medium and close ranges it feels great (unlike the enemy). His weapons are not the most powerful, but there are many of them and they have a MAD rate of fire. There are no auxiliary weapons. The anti-aircraft armament of this ship (see the quantity below) will be enough for an entire fleet. And in addition, it has torpedoes.

history

In 1936, it became clear that the fleet was in short supply of small-caliber and anti-aircraft guns. And the development of a new project began. The result of the development was the light cruiser pr.36, named "fear" during construction. The lead ship was ready in 9 months. After the tests, 2 more ships were ordered (to those in the queue 4).

control

Trottle = forward
Brakes = brake / reverse
Yaw = turning
Ag1 = front main guns.
Ag2 = left torpedo launcher.
Ag3 = right torpedo launcher.
Ag4 = back main guns.
Ag5 = right aa guns.
Ag6 = left aa guns.

weapons

100 mm cannon x 12
14.5 mm anti-aircraft machine gun x 112 (yes 112 barrels. I know that's a LOT)
Three-tube torpedo tubes x 4

protection

Armored deck: 70 mm
Armor belt: 200 mm
Extremities: 40 mm
Bridge: 150 mm
Towers (forehead / sides / stern) 80/70/30 mm

Top speed ~ 55 knots.

As a result, the ship turned out to be very peculiar. Alone at large distances, he is not able to withstand any serious opponents, but thanks to disguise, he is able to get close to the enemy, where he will reveal his full potential. As part of the fleet, it looks better as a cover ship, preventing enemy aircraft and destroyers from approaching their own.

    Yes, I was inspired by this ship. This is an anti-aircraft / light cruiser, just like the Atlanta. Its goal is to destroy aircraft and non-armored ships.

    @WarshipDude By the way, I want to say that the ship's hull does not consist of too many parts(Here are just over 30 details.) . I try to save them, and it is also difficult to work with a body with a lot of parts. I do it simply: I build the top layer (this ship consists of 3), copy it several times, reduce it as needed and adjust the float, there is also fuel (like ballast)

    @WarshipDude Any number of anti-aircraft guns is normal for fictional ships. But for real life THIS IS A LOT of tools. Also note that half of the trunks are on the opposite side.
