Ahoj!
Nice pic. Not very modern looking, isn't she? This subforum is not the liveliest part of this board Being a Large Surface Combatant (BATTLESHIPS!) site, no wonder ... Borys |

Can anyone read that rather frantic-looking Chinese?
And the missile tubes (of which there are only 12, I notice) look decidedly tacked-on. |

Looks a bit like a something out of the 60'ies.

The text is asking if the sub on the back is not 0-92.
Actually, may be 0-93, certainly not 0-92. But must certainly 0-94... |

It looks rather strikingly like a Delta II, down to the shape of the sail.
