Anyone interested in seeing the actual hull lines for these ships? Some found by the US Naval Technical Mission after WW2.

Very. This has been one that I have been wanting to scratchbuild, but I have been put off by lack of hull plans. :woo_hoo:

Here are the 3 plans I found-

I cleaned up the profile pic sorta roughly, to try and keep the image size manageable.

File comment: The commentary says this was drawn at the behest of the US from Herr Hennig in 1945.

Sean,

I have heard that the navy collected plans for several German and Japanese ships after WWII. Apparently some, if not all, are in the National Archives. Do you know where I can find a list of the ships, or lists of the drawings. How do you get copies of these drawings?

Hi Sean,
Are there any more references for this particular ship? I also want to build one and with those hull lines it would really help taking care much of the hull construction. But for the superstructure part, all I could find was simply side and top view.

Regards,
Aop

Looks like the 1942 small US BB design at the bottom!

There is a book in French called "Plan Z - Le Fantasme Naval Allemand" by Pascal Colombier (Caraktère Presse & Éditions) which includes several 3D-renderings of the P, O and M class battlecruisers.
