Gearing Class

We now have prints of the GEARING-class in the 1944 through 1946 configuration with three twin 5-inch, three quadruple 40-mm, two twin 40-mm, and ten 20-mm gun mounts, and one quintuple 21-inch torpedo tube mount.

They are in the wartime Measure 13 - Ocean Gray System (solid Ocean Gray) camouflage. They have the small, wartime hull numbers.

The color scheme was determined to be correct for the ships listed here by careful photographic research on each ship.
