CVN-71 Roosevelt Deck tilt (Fixed)

Please post a photo, it may send me into a Black Friday spending spree on CVN's

I received a replacement hull that does not have the problems I posted about earlier. Will post pictures later. Not sure what I will do with the previous hull.

Sounds like a good candidate for a, perish the thought, sinking carrier marker. If you don't want it I'll take it off your hands.

Had thought of that.

It is a fairly large chunk of metal. Bending one side of the deck took quite a lot of effort and the idea of cutting it in half just doesn't feel right.

Wondering if anyone had any spare parts that weren't searam launchers.

What kind of spare parts do you need?

Here are pictures of the updated hull casting and of the Roosevelt mostly assembled.

Everything that attaches to the hull except the actual SeaSparrow box launchers.

Thanks for taking the time to post the photos. Looks like I will be purchasing some Harpoon miniature on Black Friday

[Guroburov]

Very Nice. I don't normally hold with buying miniatures of naval craft of capitalist warmongers ( ) but that is a beauty. I may have to find budget space this next year to get one. Right after I get more Glorious Peoples naval vessels.

Ahhh, but comrade, the GPN needs fat targets like carriers and av8rmongo's billion dollar custom Maritime Pre Positioning Ships, no?

You must post pictures of the mighty GPN ships so as to strike fear into the hearts of the capitalist warmongers and envy into the hearts of the non-aligned.
