Catapult references I've found:

http://attacksquadron.pl/index.php/prod ... s/?lang=en

Especially: http://www.navsource.org/archives/01/57l.htm

http://navsource.org/archives/01/060/016080b.jpg

The type described in the NavSource article is the Catapult Type-P Mark 6. I drew it for the Alaska, spending quite a bit of time to ensure it's scaled correctly: [ img ]

This is the same catapult on the stern of the Arizona in this photo: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/c ... -19B-1.jpg

I can't find any good information on which ships received what mark/mod of catapult unfortunately.

- spring 1945 version with single 5"/mk 38 (replacing 5"/25) and additionnal 40mm quadruple and twin 20mm, after kamikaze damage experience

Before I launch a "shooting-war" comments/critics :mrgreen:
