Beautiful ship!!!!

Fantastic Work!

Somehow I never added this to my SF2 KAW install. Problem fixed :)

Ack! I am interested in recreating the USS Lake Champlain (CV-39) as she appeared in Korea. But she had the SCB-27 conversion and in photos of her in Korea, the 5-inch gun turrets are gone.

she also has the redesigned island that started out on the USS Oriskany, Like most of the SCB-27s did,

i actually for the life of me didnt know SCB-27 upgrades that simply added catapults and blast deflectors (witch wikipedia says was only added to the SCB- 27C) to the stand WW2 Essex even existed till i found a pic of the USS Boxer returning from Korea

but if you want a good model of this version of the SCB-27 i suggest snagging YAP carrier pack 2 (its the cheapest) and downloading Paulopanz LOD files for them, they should serve you well enough until this model can be updated
