m10bob -> AKV's for the Japanese(RHS) (9/23/2018 1:29:31 PM)
|
Using the reference book I have been using for all the Japanese ships I have been finding remiss, especially in the RHS mod, I located a class of pre-war merchant ships which were acquired by the IJN prior to the war, and converted into AKV's. I named the class after the first of them,..In the RHS slots, I used empty slot 1526, naming it Fujikawa Maru...On the ship slots, in THS I used open slots 10873-10881..In order they are Fujukawa Maru,Gushu Maru,Kamegawa Maru,Kanto Maru, Katsuragi Maru, Keiyu Maru, Komaki Maru, Lyon Maru, Mogamigawa Maru... They displace 8730 tons, top speed 16 Kts, cruise speed 12 knots, endurance 9000, fuel 600, troop capacity 1200, cargo capacity 1639..I used bitmap 48 which was borrowed from another AKV class with similar pre war lineage. They are all armed with 1662 guns, (1 front, 1 rear), with 2x 1622 front, 4x1622 left, 4x 1622 right, 2x1622 to the rear... All are available 12/41 except the last, which comes in on October the second, 1942.. All arrive at location 252,(Tokyo) and are assigned to 016 HQ...
