	ZAON Highend Sci-Fi Forums - Imperium Fleet Changes (the new Lineup)
		The Sumatra is also the Imperium's smallest capital warship, but it packs quite a punch.
		So, depending on the workload involved, I could introduce even another ship beyond the cruiser idea I'm toying with to keep a mixture between the omni-directional battleships and a line of fast attackers which would be more directional.
		This is the most commonly encountered Imperium warship, and also most frequently employed as a command presence for Guardian defense grids around planets where they oversea blockade duties and general planetary protection.

		The Bothan Assault Cruiser is an 850m long starship bristling with energy weapons and carrying a significant number of starfighters for its small size.
		The Republic-class cruiser is a small, fast KDY vessel that is cheap and quickly produced in mass quantities by droid workers (courtesy of Walter Jon Williams, Official Forums).
		As an additional note, if the cruiser in Star By Star is not a Republic-class cruiser ("Luke pushed the stick forward and followed Mara under the flaming belly of a kilometer-long KDY New Republic battle cruiser." [SBS, 540HC]), then we have an additional class of KDY cruiser in use by the New Republic.

	VOL0338.txt
		I have seen one photo in Morris's book on RN and Commonwealth cruisers (the photocopy I mentioned); however the two articles in Warship on the Sydney and her sisters have Perth in her camo scheme.
		Also I was wondering how a modern light cruiser could allow an auxiliary cruiser which probably had no modern fire control system to blow her out of the wate, considering the fact that the Sydney was a battle hardened ship with extensive service in the Med against the Royal Italian Navy.

	Kreigsmarine Cruiser Prinz Eugen, reviewed by James Hood
		For all their mechanical and technical shortcomings, though, the Admiral H ipper class Schwere Kreuzer (heavy cruiser) Prinz Eugen (third ship of and arguably the most famous of the class) certainly is appealing "eye candy" for warship enthusiasts.
		Warship Pictorial Number 21 Kriegsmarine Prinz Eugen, is yet another superb volume from Steve Wiper of Classic Warships publishing, one which righteously impressed this non-Deutsches Kriegsmarine enthusiast enough to e-pen a review.

	European Helicopter Carriers
		As an significant number of helicopters I regard 6 helicopters as that is the number of helicopters operated by the Italian helicopter cruiser "Vittorio Veneto" as the smallest helicopter cruiser.
		I decided to choose all ships designated as aircraft carriers plus the Russian "Kuznetsov" who is called a heavy aviation cruiser but regarded as an aircraft carrier by the western navies.
		As almost every modern major warship operates helicopters today, it is hard to decide what is a helicopter carrier and what is a warship just operating helicopters.

	USS Atlanta USS Juneau - USSATLANTA.COM
		They were conceived as flotilla leaders but ushered in a new concept in warship design, the anti-aircraft cruiser, a concept that can still be seen in the navy today in ships specialized for this role.
		Check out this new book by Glenn Arnold called Warship Perspectives - The Atlanta Class Cruisers in World War 2.
		Bowdie Craighill, an officer on board the USS Atlanta during the cruiser's night action of 12-13 November 1942 and who was awarded the Silver Star for conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in combat action against the Japanese, passed away at the age of 88 on April 7th.

	CAVOUR class aircraft carrier
		The ship would have been the 4th Italian warship to be named after the famous Italian Commander and later Admiral of the 15th and 16th Centuries.
		With a full load displacement close to 30’000 tonnes and a length of around 240 meters, the new aircraft carrier represents the largest warship built for the Italian Navy since World War II.
		Another important goal of that program was to satisfy the need for significantly expanded command and control capabilities in the framework of multinational (combined) joint task forces (CJTF) and amphibious task forces (CATF), as well as the reinforcement of the present amphibious assault capabilities, in particular as far as vertical assault (using helicopters) is concerned.

	Heavy cruiser - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The term heavy cruiser is used to refer to large cruisers, a form of warship.
		Many other science fiction universes boast classes of heavy cruisers among their warring factions, and the term seems to be a catchall for larger, heavily-armed warships.
		The biggest were the Alaska class of "large cruiser", which were often referred to as battlecruisers because their size and armament approximated that of a small battleship.

	cruiser on Encyclopedia.com
		CRUISER [cruiser] large, fast, moderately armed warship, intermediate in type between the aircraft carrier and the destroyer.
		Upon the retirement of the battleship from the major navies of the world, the cruiser became the largest of the conventionally armed warships in commission.
		The guided-missile cruiser Long Beach (completed 1961) was the first ship since World War II to be constructed for the U.S. navy from keel up as a cruiser; it was also the first nuclear-powered surface fighting ship in the world.
