Shipbucket

Good evening.
Last week I noticed that a substantial number of the drawings of the archive are depicted without the underwater hull shown. Fortunately I was able to find some blueprints with the hull under the flotation line for a number of drawings, so I redrew some of them, the first of them were vessels first drawn by MConrads and Colosseum, the Israel Shipyards built Saar 4 and Saar 4.5.



The first one, shown as the chilean Angamos, is a Saar 4. The second one is depicted as the mexican Huracán is a Saar 4.5. The last one, the heavily armed is a INS Hetz class missile boat.
Cheers.


Edited: Thanks, Gunship! Size and gun corrected in Saar 4, and Oto Melara gun in Hetz.

Very nice to see better Saar Class.

A nice update.

Ah, the old days when we couldn't be bothered with underwater parts! We've come a long way since then.

Picture does not appear for me.

Nice improvements!

Nice work, but the correct length of Saar 4 is 58 m anf Saar 4.5 is 62 m.

I think this OTO Gun is the right one for these magnificent ships

Amazing detail

Good morning.
The last encarnation of the Saar 4 is the OPV 62 or Saar 62, built by ISL for the Hellenic, Cypriot and Azeri coastguards. Shown here is the first vessel of the later service.

For a OPV, it has a powerful missile armament in the form of a launcher for 8 Spike NLOS atop the superstructre. Cheers.

NB1: Please, check if the drawing of the missile launcher is correct. I scaled it from a picture without any reference of the size with the exception of a man alongside it. The flag is referential only, I was unable to see a picture of the azeries vessels with a flag flying. Another issue is that in any picture I saw a satellite communications dome, but I can supose that it must have it. I am also confused about the crane for the RHIB, is very different to the one placed in the hellenic vessels, do you know why so big difference? Finally, I only placed in the title the hull number of the vessel, because I am not sure if the name (Tufan) refers to the specific vessel or to the whole class.


NB2: Thanks Char!

Real Hellenic Coast Guard vessels are shorter, 58m, and does not have helipad.
