Here is the second HMS Endurance: she was formerly the Anita Dan, a unit of Laurintzen Lines. She was converted into HMS Endurance in 1967 and played a major role in the Falkland (or Malvinas) War. Later she has a strong collision against an iceberg and, after a while, she was replaced by the third one.

As technical note the available profile are very poor and wrong! Also the Jane's one is not correct. I had a lot of fun making this drawing checking all through old pictures...

I've always imagined it as bit lengthier and not so tall ship, but I migth have been victim of the wrong profiles


Anyways, great ship and great drawing...I've always wanted to desing something similar ship for my own Finnish AU ideas, but I never seem to get near the auxillaries :cry:

Frankly speaking Anita Dan was much more nice!
The added hangar as well the bow structure are really hugly!

I did this in a hurry, from our RN AU, and its was a mild reworking of D.P.'s much improved version, so sorry there is no 'vanilla' version at present.

So the keel was not horizontal? Looks strange, but I guess it is right...
