Lexington class battlecruiser[edit]

Original - Design for the Lexington class battlecruiser, 1919 after revision from original draft design and before conversion to fleet carrier use.
Reason
Design for the only class of battlecruiser ever to be ordered by the United States Navy. Photography is not possible because two of the ships were converted to fleet carriers before construction was completed, and the other four were scrapped. Restored version of File:Lexington_class_battlecruiser.jpg.

  • Abstain - I requested that Durova do this, so I am abstaining, but I wanted to state that I believe this meets the FP criteria. Cheers, —Ed 17 (Talk / Contribs) 02:30, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • That's no reason to not support it, AFAIK... personally I'm not sure it's a really great image, looks like a very early monochrome copy of a decent watercolour, the way the blacks have bled out. Not sure that's a deal breaker, just an observation. mikaultalk 11:40, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support per nom, what a ship she would have been, although CV-2 was nice as well. -MBK004 20:44, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
