Mahan Class Destroyer paper model ?
I've been looking for a Mahan Class Destroyer .
Specifically the U.S.S. Reid. Can't seem to find one. If there is one ? Could someone point me in the right direction ? |

Wayne McCullough has a line of 1/600 WWII treaty-era destroyers of the Benham and Gridley/Bagley class More US Navy Destroyers
Gerry 1966 has redrawn some of them in 1/400 US Navy Destroyers in 1/400 It is possible that they may produce other USN destroyers in the future. The available models are at the Forum download section: http://www.papermodelers.com/forum/v...0&categoryid=3 Lou Coatney also publishes lot of 1/600 model warships My simple cardstock model ship designs. His home page: Lou Coatney: Home Page I hope the Mahan (and Farragut!) class DDs become available. Don |

Ormac Bay and surrounding waters was a really hot spot in December 1944. Sounds like your relative was lucky to have survived Reid's sinking.
I have always liked the appearance of the pre-WWII U.S. destroyers. They all had active and interesting wartime service, as well. Here's hoping you have the chance to build a model of Reid some day. Don |

I decided to order these three Destroyers.
I'll decide which one to build , when I get to look at them. At this point , I'm thinking i want to build the Selfridge. https://sklep.gpm.pl/en/modelcard/sh...e-porter-class https://sklep.gpm.pl/en/modele-karto...ss-ward--typ-a https://sklep.gpm.pl/en/modele-karto...letscher-class |
