	Global Beat: Indian Nuclear Submarine Fleet Development Program: Russian Participation
		The first in the list is the 3M-80 Moskit anti-ship supersonic cruise missile (SS-N-22 Sunburn) being sold only as the armament for Sovremenny type destroyers of 956 series, which can be used only on the surface.
		China being a most likely rival of New Delhi in the arms and economic race, even having Sovremenny type destroyers with 8 Moskit anti-ship cruise missiles (SS-N-22 Sunburn), aircraft carriers and diesel powered Kilo- class submarines in its navy forces, could not compete with the Indian Navy.
		After India has informally joined the nuclear club, it strives for possessing not only tactical nuclear weapons jeopardizing interests of Pakistan and China.

		We're pleased to announce that the Destroyer Club's forums are back up and running.

	Navy News - Young Readers Club - News & Features - Press Gang - Stepthen Gill
		Exmouth was one of the E-class destroyers that were improved versions of the C and D-class vessels.
		In November 1939, Exmouth was one of the destroyers that provided an escort to the battlecruiser HMS Hood, searching for the German battlecruisers Scharnhorst and Gneisenau in the North Atlantic.
		I chose to draw and do a little bit of research into HMS Exmouth as I live in Exmouth, and I go on holiday to Nairn, in Scotland, and Nairn is right next to the Moray Firth where she was sunk.

	FN-LC-IIIa Mk II Light Carrier
		The primary goal of the manipulation was to prove the theory of M. Gualee (a noted Hiver Navy Manipulator) that the same hull as the the Light Cruiser (which was still being "debated" among the Naval Procurement Topical Club) would be usable as a Light Carrier.
		The 12 GJ Parallel Mount NPAW is designed to give the carrier the ability to defend itself against escorts and destroyers as well as annihalate the smaller Vampire and utilize the EMP effects.
		Constructed from the same hull design as the CL-IXa class Light Cruiser, the LC-IIIa was an economy design, a manipulation from the Naval Procurement Topical Club.

		She became a full-fledged member of the "Train Busters Club" when she destroyed a railroad train on the night of 11 March 1953.
		Unbeknownst to Dad at the time, aircraft carrier assignments are in high demand, relative to destroyers.

	Advanced Japanese Destroyers of World War II
		For the time being, that all but knocked the American cruisers, like the Japanese, out of the war; and, mercifully, it was about the end of the line for the "Gun Club." American destroyers finally came into their own with victory in the battle of Vela Gulf, 6/7 August 1943.
		In subsequent battles in the Solomons, the Japanese were without all of their previous advantages, and their reliance on destroyers to carry the brunt of supply as well as combat actions simply meant a terrific attrition in the destroyer force.
		The campaigns in Indonesia, culminating in the battle of the Java Sea, 27 February 1942, and then the long campaign in the Solomon Islands from 1942 to 1943, provided many opportunities for Japanese torpedo and night combat training to pay off.

		The light divisions were originally intended to fill the gap previously filled by the cavalry arm; that is, as a social club for most of the military-minded aristocrats.
		Panzer IIIs and panzer 38ts were turned in to the factories and subsequently converted into self-propelled guns and tank destroyers.
		The first five panzer divisions each gave up one of their panzer regiments to new divisions and the other new panzer divisions were entirely new.

	Travel to Narvik - Norway - Norwegen - Europe - History - WorldTravelGate.net®-
		The first battle of Narvik had left most of the German Destroyers damaged and the Admiralty was in no mood to let them rest.
		"The wreck was blown up and sunk after the war because the people of Narvik didn't want to be reminded of those terrible days," says Jorgen Michaelson, who heads up the local dive club.
		NARVIK was established less than a century ago as an ice-free port to handle the iron ore brought by train from northern Sweden, and the iron ore docks are immediately conspicuous upon arrival here, slap-bang in the centre of town, the rust-coloured machinery overwhelming the whole waterfront.

		During the war all four destroyers carried dazzle camouflage schemes, and were distinguished not by numbers but playing card suits: Regina Maria for example had a spade on her bow, and Marasesti a club.
		Marasesti could do 34 knots, but Marasti cracked a shaft and by the end of the war could only do 24 knots at best.
		The two ships arrived in Romania in 1921, and were renamed Marasti and Marasesti after two Romanian victories over the Germans in World War I. The Romanians found the six-inch guns too heavy for them, as the Italians had also eventually decided as well.
