    So I have been doing a little research on WW2 and WW1 and I found an interesting ship. The U.S.S Montana. From what I found she was not build, but if would have been built, she may have been a suitable match against the Yamato class battleship.
    Does anyone know a group that has a Montana? It seems like an interesting project and looks like it could be a fun build.

    Pretty sure Treaty has one or two, i think WWCC may have one. I think Curt bought a hull but hasn't built it yet.

    Montana isn't legal in all groups, however, since she wasn't built.

    Nick is correct. Treaty built this one, I'm not sure if there is a second one. http://rcnavalcombat.com/Forum/tabid/58/afv/topic/aff/566/aft/441964/afpg/1/Default.aspx

    Yes WWCC does have a Montana though I do believe she has never seen combat. There is also at least one more hull in the club tat has not begun construction yet

    I have pics of Montana in my section under Clubs . Mine is A.R.C.C (Atlantic Radio Control Club).Update I received my pkg from strike. It contains the Montana superstructure except for the large o1 level . That is being shipped in a different pkg I think. I may be wrong I have not had a chance to open the parcel yet. It also contains the plans for the Montana.

    This really belongs in another section of the forums, since it isn't a build. Duly moved, with no malice.
