I have one CV-6 Enterprise that I am going to build and I have the following question where I can find more information about the torpedo blister?, I saw that you added in a round edges but I saw one drawing showing a different shape also the thickness on that in one frame drawing is showing that was 4" thick starting at the 4th DK and going down passing the 1st Platform and finishing in 2.5" thick, also in that drawing they called Main Side Belt.
Thanks
Alex
Hey Alex! I’ll have to find you the info I have so let me get back to you on it( it was surprisingly difficult to find) your info sound correct from what I remember. As for the shape of the blister I couldn’t find any great documentation on it the general plans from the 1943 refit don’t seem to be online , they are at the national archives in college park supposedly. So I just had to use what photos I could.
I found one drawing at the report of damage at Naval History and Heritage Command, War Damage Reports USS Enterprise, Plate VII Bomb and Suicide Plane Damage, in this drawing is showing the side view of the blister and also the Frame 136, that confirm that the blister was like round shape and the end and went from the main deck down, probably from 2.5 in thick the min to 4 in at the water line, base on the Frame 76 that is at the US Carriers 5 & 6 book from 1941.
Shame she wasn’t saved, arguably the most valuable warship in us history! Good luck on your build, what year are you doing?
I think the summer of 1943 or early 1944
