Here is modest "how to recognize" about IJN battleships. If you have any remarqs and/or questions... Nimitz
I'll try to do it better as soon as i'll have finished all my 3D profiles. I'll try too to explain it in english (i try 'cause my english is very basic) If some of the forum are interested, i've the main part of IJN profiles : All BB's except Musashi necause i've not found a correct profile to work it Heavy cruisers A lot of aircraft carriers an example here :
Or, there is the simple nemonic (memory device) that the US Office of Naval Intelligence used in their recognition manuals during WW 2: When Jap BB's sail off to glory, they almost always add a story!" A reference to the towering "pagaoda" bridge structure.
Nice profiles nimitz, excellent detail. I'd like to see more if you have them. If you like you can use the attach function and save yourself the trouble of hosting the files somehwere else. Oh, and welcome to the WWII Forums! :S!
