Authentic model of the USS Oregon

Here’s What You Need To Remember: The bottom line on aircraft carrier survivability is that only a handful of countries can credibly pose a threat to America’s most valuable warships, and short of using nuclear weapons none of those is likely to sink one.  Although the Navy has changed it tactics to deal with the proliferation of fast […]

The US Air Force tactic known as ‘toss bombing’ or the 'over-the-shoulder maneuver,' is accomplished by flying towards the target at a lower altitude,

OMSI is a favorite destination for families in Oregon and Southern Washington. Besides special exhibits, the permanent exhibits are designed to engage kids and teens with hands on learning. Other highlights include: • USS Blueback submarine tours • IMAX theater • Physics lab • Environmental lab • Biology and Paleontology labs

I recently went on the Tour of the USS Blueback Submarine on display at OMSI in Portland Oregon. This is the view through the parascope. I couldnt imagine living onboard one of these beasts with 80 other guys for months at a time. Everybody becomes friends real fast. I took this with my iPhone 5s.

USS Albany (CA-123) was a United States Navy Oregon City-class heavy cruiser, later converted to the guided missile cruiser CG-10. The converted cruiser was the lead ship of the new Albany guided missile cruiser class. She was the fourth ship to carry the name Albany. The ship was laid down on 6 March 1944 at Quincy, Massachusetts, by the Bethlehem Steel Company, launched on 30 June 1945, sponsored by Mrs. Elizabeth F. Pinckney, and commissioned on 15 June 1946 at the Boston Navy Yard.

As some of you may know, I have a fetish for old American battleships. The USS Indiana was the third battleship in the US Navy, and the first truly modern one (receiving the hull classification BB-1). She was commissioned in 1895. Along with her sister ships Massachusetts* and Oregon (Awe's shipfu), the Indiana fought in the Spanish-American War. "The Indiana-class ships were designed specifically for coastal defense and were not intended for offensive actions. This design view was reflected in their moderate coal endurance, relatively small displacement and low freeboard, which limited seagoing capability. However, they were heavily armed and armored, so much in fact that Conway's All The Worlds Fighting Ships describes them as "attempting too much on a very limited displacement." They resembled the British battleship HMS Hood (1891), but were 60 ft (18 m) shorter and featured an intermediate battery consisting of eight 8-inch guns not found in European ships, giving them a very respectable amount of firepower for their time." Wikipedia My reference for the paint scheme, which I honestly am really into. I'm quite happy with this build. From what I can tell, it's the first Lego model of this vessel, and it's fairly accurate in my humble opinion. Enjoy!

In 2037, after performing a survey of how well their ships could engage asymmetrical threats, the US Navy began refitting the Oregon Class. The major addition to the ship was 10, or 12 in the case of the New Hampshire, Rheinmetall Oerlikon Millennium II 3.5in Guns. As well as towed array sonar, steering/stabilization fins, updated software and the Hellfire S missile system. I also added a bunch of small features such as flags and lights that would have been present on the previous model but I hadn’t added yet. - USS New Hampshire 2037 Refit - 3D model by Pippa (@Planetrix23)
