[Guinness]

My! 7500 tons is a light cruiser now...

I think the combination of 6" and 120mm guns is redundant and will result in FC difficulties. Better would be either a smaller ship without the 120mm's, or a ship with say 10 or 12 6".

I can see including a few (maybe up to 4) sub-caliber guns on a ship meant for commerce raiding for dispatching smaller game without wasting 6" ammunition. This would be more like 75mm - 105mm guns though. These you wouldn't use with centralized FC.

Also: the BC is maybe a little low for such a large ship.

[Jefgte]

This class is made for scouting  the battleline & ...repulse DDs too.
120mm QF twin mounts are welcome for that job.


Jef

[Guinness]

6" is just fine for repulsing DDs, especially if you have more of them. 152mm and 120mm are actually pretty close in capability in that regard, so I really don't think you need both. It seems like a very retrograde design decision for a ship built in the 20's to me.

[Jefgte]

IMO, lighter guns like 4" or 3" are now too small for engage 1500t DDs & heavier in a few years.

T2x150 is too heavy, M2x120 QF is adequate to engage DDs, mobility rate of fire, range &... damages.

Real History is the referent but not the absolute rule.

Very pretty ships Jef! I'd say the only things I'd change are to use mount & hoist instead of turret & barbette for the 15cm, this would allow you to use the 100t Cruiser FC instead of the 250t BB FC (which is required w/ T&B mounts IIRC) and cut the 20mm armor off the 12.7mm Mgs. I maybe would consider upping the 15cm mounts armor to something like 50/25/60 since you don't have an upper belt having only 20mm of armor on the handling rooms could be bad. Once down to the magazine you'd be behind the 80mm belt, but the shell handling room and whatnot will be just below the deck and have no side protection other than the 'hoist/barbette' armor. My 2cents.

Now this ship I like
Small fast with adequate armor.
I have no Idea what will it be good for but I like it.

You need more light cruisers, not armoured cruisers.....just saying.
