Quoted

8 - 5.91" / 150 mm guns (4x2 guns), 103.21lbs / 46.82kg shells, 1929 Model
Anti-aircraft guns in turrets (on barbettes)
on side, all amidships


I expect these are supposed to be breech-loaders?

Quoted

Range 14,500nm at 12.00 kts


Range seems rather excessive for a Turkish, though not an Indian, ship. It might make sense to trade some of this range for a thicker torpedo bulkhead.

Ack!!! Edited the AA goof up with the proper SS file. As for the Range I suppose it could be reduced but her weight will likely go up which means more materials which is a no no in terms of costs for the Turks. At any rate I need to be able to transit around Greek held Anatolia.

Wes, it should be a transfer of 2,472 t - you've left out the "Slip Tax".

Heh, see what happens when you lose track of records?
Time for a clean up!

Maybe the extra fuel is in fact fresh water storage?
