It was developed in the 1940s. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2) From JRKutina@webtv.net (John Kutina) Subject Small Warships SIG - Home http//www.smallwarshipgroup.org.uk/ Regards, John Kutina ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3) From Lars Scharff Subject San Giorgio and Hangzhou Hi, I recently I bought the Italian armoured cruiser San Giorgio by Delphis and the Russian destroyer Sovremenny by Dragon. The instructions of the San Giorgio are missing. Would it be possible, that somebody, who bought this kit, can scan or copy the instruction for me? Or can give me the e-mail-address of Delphis? I plan to built the Sovremenny as Chinese Hangzhou or Fuzhou. What are the colours of this ships in the Chinese Navy? The vertical parts appear to be painted in a bluish light gray, but I have no photos of the decks. Are the decks similary painted to the Russian ships of the Sovremenny class? Dark brown and rust-orange? Best regards Lars Scharff ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4) From "Chuck Messer" Subject Re They Say it's a Tiny Sub....
