    Not the BB, I'm talking about the armored cruiser. Anybody have plans for her, or know where to get them.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Wow, that's pricey. Are the general hull shapes the same between the Tennessee class and the Pennsylvania class? The Tennessee class is only 3ft wider than the Penn'.
    Other than that, they seem identical. I have several different sets of plans for ships of the Tenn' class. I'm thinking that I can use those as a basis for making a set for Penn'.
    Do you think it could be possible?

    They would have a different beam ratio as they are wider but I suspect they are otherwise the same. Tennessees have larger turrets of course.

    If I could just find an accurate side and top profile of a Penn' class, I might be able to make a nice set of plans.
