I've come across maybe two or three Navy MOC's. A few submarines, and even a couple of modern navy aircraft carriers but practically zero Frigates or Destroyers. After searching long and hard on Lugnet and Brickshelf I determined it was time to (...) (23 years ago, 2-Aug-01, to lugnet.build)

Right now it is green overall with the underside of the wings and fuselage in light grey. It also has D-day invasion markings on the bottom as well ( black and white stripes on the bottom rear part of the fuselage) At this point lego doesn't make a (...)
