USS Samuel B. Roberts DE-413

75 NoahEvans  4.1 years ago

Not my ship, I only repaired it and made it floatable. The USS Samuel B. Roberts was a destroyer escort that fought in the US Pacific Fleet in World War Two. It is most famous for its service in the Battle of Samar, where it and its crew valiantly fought with a small force of destroyers and destroyer escorts against the massive Japanese Center Force in the larger Battle of Leyte Gulf. The Samuel B. Roberts and Taffy 3, the fleet it served with, ultimately saved General MacArthur's invasion force on Leyte from certain destruction. Use throttle to move, and yaw to turn. Activate group 1 for the turrets, which are controlled with VTOL and trim. Use groups 2 and 3 for torpedos. Please enjoy using this ship, and leave constructive criticism in the comments.
