GA Review[edit]

Looks good, but I'd like to see more links to the individual articles on the armament. And I'm really not sure if the expansion # for the different types of steel is really important, but I'm not a metallurgist and telling me that one is harder than the other generally suffices. Hmm, unless that expansion # relates to brittleness or ductility... Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 03:35, 11 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well...do you want redlinks? :) The expansion #'s are there for comparison between the two types of armor; otherwise I would agree that it would not be needed. —Ed (TalkContribs) 05:01, 11 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Who said anything about redlinks? I've gone ahead and added links for the 105 and 20 mm AA guns, but I'll have to write articles for the 150 and 37 mm guns. I'll add links once I'm done. Fix this: Light anti-aircraft guns were eight 37 mm in dual mounts and twenty 20 mm machine guns in four mounts. since it doesn't match what's in the armamament sub-section. I'd suggest: eight 37 mm in four dual mounts and twenty 20 mm in single mounts. Do we know how the torpedo tubes were arrayed? Fixed, rotating, above water or underwater?

Re the torpedo tubes: Groner's says "six 53.3cm TT (18 rounds), all lateral above water". The book has a preliminary design, and if I'm interpreting it correctly, the three tubes on either side are mounted in the hull just forward of the rear funnel.
