Thanks for everyone in PortSP for supporting me and sharing their knowledge


Poltava/Petropavlovsk

was a group of 3 ships in the class.
Petropavlovsk class were built during the 1890's and transferred to Pacific Squadron shortly after their completion based at Port Arthur before the start of Russo-Japanese war in 1904-1905.

All 3 ships in the class participated in the battle of Port Arthur.
Petropavlovsk struck a mine and sunk, Sevastopol and Poltava were sunk or scuttled during the final stages of Port Arthur sieges.

The Petropavlovsk class were fitted with the modest yet powerful 305mm and 152mm secondaries with 47mm tertiaries to complete the ordnance.
with a displacement of 12.000+ tons, this ship is capable to reach only 16 knots (30 kph), ship's armor consisting from 254mm-406mm at the waterline, strong enough to compete with her rivals.

-Real life accurate size of the ship.
-Camera perspective from the bridge.
-Included in-game craft instructions.
-Features are scarce since most of the techniques and FT i've used is outdated (sadly).
-included a makeshift gun recticle (not accurate, failed horrendously).
-Gun whoosh sound
-Real turning physics, turn radius depends of your ship current speed

I deeply apologize if this ship cannot meet your satisfaction.
