ADMIRAL189'S CORNER - INCOMING SHIP MODELS

Hey Navy,

Mostly modern for now as they are easier to create. Older model ships are time consuming but i will eventually create some. Just have to find some good ones. Eventually I will work my way up to an older Carrier. Staying busy though. San Antonio is priority right now but i work other models along with her..

Oh wow, I was not thinking that as the next coast guard boat. Yeah, from what models you have shown I had a feeling that were you going with it, and it makes sense. I like to see ED add some more naval ships to go with what they have already, and I know RAZBAM has talked about adding some more down the road, but I think you and joey45 are doing a great job, keep it up. :thumbup:

I was thinking to go with the Oak Hill and the Tarawa may be a Newport class LST would look great, make a true Amphibious ready group?

That is just one Coastie. I'm looking to get another one but their costly.. If i can find a good model LST i will bring it to DCS.. My fisrt ship was the USS Spiegel Grove. old LSD... She is now a reef off the coast of florida

Oh nice, I grow up in Bremerton Wa for many years, I quite enjoyed looking at the shipyard and the reserve fleet. It wasn't till after high school while waiting to get into the navy I got to be on my first ship, an old tin can USS Turner Joy DD-951. I wasn't able to get in the navy but I spent four and half years working on here with grate pride and still do to this day. I would love to see her in DCS fully detailed but not much use for her in the game unless a Vietnam map and asset pack comes out.

I spent 24 years in the Navy.. The last 7 years I was a Harbor Pilot. The largest ship i navigated was the USS Kitty Hawk from Japan.. that was my qual ship. After retirment. I drove tugs, ferries, LCUs and Navigated ships.. So most of career has been on the water or near it. So i understand how ships function in real life..

Nice to see another Anchor Clanker in here. In a few weeks I am going to have my computer back up and running, and am going to start a new project. My plan is thr LPH-2 USS Iwo Jima Class (circa 1990) as well as the MCS-12 conversion. I just want to make sure these aren't in your pipeline.

USSInchon, no those are not on my radar. I'm working small boys now and i will gradually move up to larger ships.

Working on another Coast Guard ship. I'm not hearing any news on Marianna so it may be late this year before it's in DCS.. I'm creating the coastie for that map.

I'm also working on an Aussie ship. I will try to get a Canandian ship also.

At some point I will try to get my Japanese fleet created. Refueler, LST and Atago DDG.

Still working to get the San Antonio finished also.. Staying Busy!!

Nice ! Can't wait .

Admiral is the LCAC out? Thanks for the update.

No, i will put the LCAC out with the San Antonio. I have two versions. One with and without the tank. I will be dropping the LCU and hopefully i can get the MK-8 boat up and running.

I found a Refueler that i am working on. Not a great model but it will be at least DCS Worthy..

Syrians are coming!! I will post the armed Syrian boat this week!!

That one is cool!

Nice Small boat, can't wait

I found another texture that i'm testing. I think it looks pretty good. I will have two versions!!

Working on some merchant vessels also.

sweet! will all your ships be a part of a single bundled mod at some point?

NICE!!! by teh way is teh Tug included? ;)

Yes, The Tugboat will come with the merchants!

Trying to finish up the armed Syrian boat. I will release later today or early tomorrow.

I can't see any of the pictures posted, says it "image not found or was removed". Anyone else have that issue?

Anyhow Admiral189, I've been enjoying the San Antonio pics and cant wait to see your future mods! :)

I really think the photos are being removed.. i will try to add some more and see what happens. I will be releasing these today along with an american version that fires missiles.

Thanks Linx, i'm really trying to get San Antonio out this week along with an LCU, LCM and LCAC... It will be a pack..

Id start using Imgur for your hosting if stuff is getting deleted. I use it for tons of forums, here included.

Also, that armed boat could be great as a standin for the SWCC boats the SEALs use in missions, either for protecting them or providing CAS to allow for an extraction.

I will try Imgur again. Gonna see how it works.

Nice boat Lance. I need to rework mine. It works but the guns needs to be reworked.

Check Page 6 for updated American Speed Boat.

Admiral,

Love the boats, they are looking terrific. I downloaded the two new attack boats it appears that the weapons may not be working accurately. The main cannon and missile launcher looks like the are tracking the targets but they are backwards, as in the back end of the weapon is aimed at the target. Hopefully other can test that out as well.

Thanks
