[miketr]

Thats big...

[Jefgte]

hmmm...

About 8x455 & 22kts for a 40 000t Richmond BB

[maddox]

5 and a half year, or ,if doubling the pricetag, 4 years of build time.

[maddox]

Do you have a type 5 slip or dock, available for 6 years?

[Guinness]

Well, you'd only really need the dock for about 3 years...

[ctwaterman]

The more accurate question would be do you have a Type 5 Dry Dock or Slip....

I know I dont but what the Hey 3 or 4 years to build the Dock and 3 years to finish the hull of the ship and launch it ????

But My it does almost appear French in design [Implying Extremely Large]
