Sorry, it's my fault for being lazy and simply giving ref to ''Shipbucket'', I retracked all the images I used and gave proper credit in all of them.

Yeah, I could maybe start a thread, when I first designed the Zarya space station, I didn't knew how far I would get carried ! As for playing with the parts, go ahead ! I myself took a lot of part from Shipbucket anyway. Unfortunately, Mir was already on its way out when the European started to...

I'll bite for fun, the craftsmanship can easily be done by regular craftsman such as blacksmiths and metallurgist. For the mirrors, they can use simpler polished cooper or bronze plates, any mathematician can determine the gross angle needed for focusing the light on the ''furnace'' of the...

Yes and no, there was an obvious observation of pollution of the water and air as early as 1812, with the coinage of terms such as ''city-fog'' or ''pea soup fog'' and the description of urban heat island in the formation of smog, notably in London. But the lack of alternative and industrialists...

Maybe some kind of Stirling engine using mirrors to focus the sunlight on a focal point, it could be usefull for region without coal or charcoal sources.

In 2020, NASA came forward with an announcement that shook the astronautical world: a new launcher would be built to replace the venerable Space Shuttle. While those who had some inside already knew the vague direction, for most of the public it was a complete surprise when they unveiled their...

You forgot the #13

Not a flat chance in hell, you would need to have France on its knees before taking it (like after the OTL battle of France)

Now that's a French wank ! (as well as a Serbian one, almost double the size and number of ethnicity then Yougoslvia, they would need the hell of a Tito !)

Space Station Freedom, the largest space station (and last remaining since 2014), saw birth ironically with both the Soviet ''Zvezda'' and ''Mir'' space stations. With the Russian abandoning any attempt at Moon landing, the Apollo program became more and more hollow, looking more and more to the...

Before the English invasion and the creation of the ''Province of Quebec'' along the St-Lawrence, it was called Canada and most of the ''Quebecois'' were calling themselves Canadien.

Small nitpick, it's: Le Feu Tue not La as in French fire is masculine

I'm good, thanks for asking !

It's not Fairey Fulmar but Sea Hurricanes. The Canadians seem to have obtained the F4 pretty late and they had a local Hurricane production lines, although it's a good catch, maybe the 1942-43 carriers could have some F4 Martlets loaned/given by the USA.

I added deck tower on the Protector and Escorter following the constructive criticism of @Eternity Thanks for the comments !

Interesting, I might add side deck towers on the two other design, thanks for the catch !

I was partly inspired by the Argus for these ships and there seem to be no bridge (maybe I wrongly interpreted the image tho)

From the inside with the instruments, a spotter on the tower warn the captain in case of danger and the smokestack is on the port side

In 1933, the former SS Astrée of the Compagnie de Caen was put to sell and both Canada and Italian owners were bidding for the ship, for two different reasons. The Italian bidders were obviously looking to own the ship for cargo hauling but the Canadian government was looking to convert the ship...
