All,

I'm seeking good information for modeling a 1/700 scale Cannon Class DE. Anyone know of a good source for colors and fittings/equipment - Internet or Book?

Thanks!
Gunnie

Another good source (books):

United States Navy Destroyers of World War II, 1983, by John C. Reilly, Jr.
ISBN: 0713710268

U.S. Destroyers, An Illustrated Design History, 1982, by Norman Friedman
ISBN: 087021733X

“United States Destroyer Operations in World War II”
By Theodore Roscoe, designed and illustrated by Fred Freeman
(No ISBN - the copy I have is before it from US Naval Institute)

Hope this helps

Skipper

Thanks much guys!

Those sqadron "In action" books give out a lot of good info at a reasonable price. They ended up with 4 books on destroyers and I couldn't tell you which one would contain Cannon class. Of course I am assuming this is a US destoyer World War 2 here.

Yes - WW II. I have the Skywave kit that comes with two Cannon Class DE's and Tom's Modelworks 1/700 scale DE Photoetch Set to build.
