British destroyers -from Earliest days to the second world war by Norman Friedman has a good overhead plan and profile of a wartime R (Radstock) as well as a good overview sketch of the changes made to HMS Skate in 1941. Hope this helps.

"British Destroyers" by Edgar J March, 1966 has drawings of the R class destroyer. Also a photo of a shiny HMS Romola in 1916 and a very well-worn HMS Skate in 1942.

Hi,

HMS Skate was an Admiralty Class R Class Destroyer. There are plans for HMS Telemacus by John Lambert which was also a Admiralty Class R Class. They are a very good set of plans.

Cheers,
George

Thats the one. Are there plans out there somewhere? I have accumulated some more info but still haven't landed plans.

That took me to something saying no such entry but suggested a HMS Skate (1917) page which had a number of possibilities. R Class destroyer?

Just curious, what sort of ship is HMS Skate?

I have done searches and cant come up with drawings of this ship or others in the flotilla. I'm sure I've just missed them but I'm looking to build her in 1/192. If anyone can send me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated. Its my first attempt at this so the learning curve will be a steep one. I have gathered where to get some of the detail items (Shapeways etc) but need the overall plan and profile. TIA

Steve
