Description: FSX/Accel Pilotable WWII York-class heavy cruiser HMS Exeter. Exeter entered service in July 1931. She was armed with three 203 mm twin guns and two and later four 102 mm twin guns and she ran up to thirty two knots. In September 1939 Exeter and other british cruisers were searching for the German pocket battleship Graf Spee along the south american Atlantic coast. On December 13 Exeter got eleven 28 cm hits form Graf Spee but was still able to escape. But in the battle against three british cruisers Graf Spee became also damaged and did not get any chance for repair in Montevideo and so she was sunk by their own crew four days later. In February 1942 HMS Exeter and other british warships encountered a battle in the Java Sea against a japanese fleet. Also in this battle Exeter was able to escape but finaly on 1st of March she sank after a battle against four japanese cruisers and four destroyers. Now you can explore this warship by toggling through twenty three cameras showing hundreds of realisticly details. Effects are seperatly configured for port and starboard. The Ai-vessel HMS Exeter is converted from another format to a native FSX simobject using Sketchup by Klaus Novak and belongs to his WWII Royal Navy fleet at SOH.
