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.
