UK and US reports 1921
Noteable events UK,
2 G3 type ships laid down 40,000t 9x15" guns. Expected to complete in 1924-25.
HMS Amazon laid down, destroyer. To complete in 1922
Noteable events US,
2 South Dakota type ships carried on with 40,000t 16x14" expected to complete in 1924
1 Lexington started to be converted to a carrier??
Everyone ok with this?
USN
I doubt the Americans would really build 16x14" SDs... More likely are 12x14" in four tripples or 15x14" in five tripples.
I hadn't thought about 15x14" guns. It does seem more likely. Thanks.
questions
Did we decide what ships Britain and the U.S. would have in our alternate world? If so I'd like to perhaps take on the responcibility of listing future U.S. ship developements.
SoDaks vs Lexingtons
Again, the 16x14" is a lot of guns, but they'll be the slowest BBs a-building in the world, and with no IZ against the powerful 15"-gun ships coming along.
I still think the US would make a division of 12x14" Lexingtons.
