Greek cruiser " Georgios Averof" - historical question
Hi everyone!
I'm searching info about Georgios Averof. In detail, i found info on her weapons configuration after 1927 refit, but i cannot find the exat locations of A\A and tertiary weapons (254 and 190mm still in their place). Can i ask you if someone can help me please? https://www.naval-encyclopedia.com/w...seysAverof.jpg The ship before the refit... And this is the WIP ship, please don't look at textures, they just give the idea, but hull, funnels, masts etc are really low-res: https://i.ibb.co/qMTT1t7/SH3-Img-30-...13-9-4-325.jpg Best regards, Vd |
Maybe the pics of the model in this link help you in some way. Model builders are great sources for this kind of info.

I meet this site before, i guess this could be a good source I assume the last pic refere to after refit configuration; i have those info: primary 2 × twin 234 mm (9.2 in) guns OK secondary 4 × twin 190 mm (7.5 in) guns OK + 8 × single 76 mm (3 in) guns 4 × single 76 mm (3 in) AA guns 6 × single 36 mm (1.42 in) AA guns (OK, but did they replace lifeboats with this bridge-shaped structure?) Something appear strange in 76mm number: https://i.ibb.co/pXrpf9j/greece-geor...1909-09172.jpg Here i can find 15 of them, with 2 in casemates, instead 12... Best regards, Vd |
I would sure remove the one on top of the A turret.

Maybe you should look for the site Georgios Averof as a floating museum in Palaio Faliro, Athens.
