Arrangement of belt armor

Post by Bill Jurens »

I am commencing some detailed survey work on the damage to the sides of Bismarck for an upcoming paper. In that regard, it appears that the best way to map the video and photographic images together is to use the vertical joints of the armor belt as reference lines.

To that end, can anyone on this board supply some detailed information regarding the position and spacing of these vertical joints?

Many thanks in advance.
