Will you add a couple or three sailors around the ship? Maybe a couple of flying deck guys as well...

I was thinking about that adding two in the back for the helicopter landing pad, and one for the watch tower, but that will add more to the model poly but I will try. :wink:

I think it will worth the effort, look how cluttered and colorful that area looks! The sailors, the orange lifebuoys and hoses

Kuwait and the Battle of the Bridges

Kuwait had 143 Chieftains on the eve of the 1990 Iraqi Invasion of Kuwait. Thirty-seven Chieftains of the Kuwaiti 35th Armored Brigade fought at the Battle of the Bridges against elements of the Iraqi Hammurabi and Medina divisions before withdrawing over the Saudi border.[ None of the brigade's tanks was lost in the battle, and the 35th Armored Brigade (known as Al-Fatah) became part of Joint Command Forces East during the 1991 Gulf War and was able to return to Kuwait undefeated.

Besides those of the 35th Armored Brigade, the rest of the Kuwaiti Armed Forces' Chieftains (136)[29]) were either destroyed or captured by the invading forces after they had been abandoned by their Kuwaiti crews when their ammunition ran out. After the liberation of Kuwait, the aging Chieftains were replaced by the Yugoslav M-84.

Added the landing crew for the F-40 :pilotfly:free model but I had to do the skin for it and tweak it a bit. also, change the helicopter housing door texture.

Gentlemen - I apologize for coming in so late on this,  but in Real Life™ the garage door would very probably be open in this situation.  If not, the LSO would instead be located on an upper deck to allow him a quick exit from the flight deck area in the event of a problem.  Note below - while not the best focus and resolution (and age probably hasn't helped, either!), you can see the LSO on the centerline and the door is open as an escape route:
