Steve WilsonGreat build Ricardo...
What is the significance of the two redlines the broad arched one with 225 and the thinner one from the destroyer???
Sorry but I'm a car man😄!!!

Ricardo MartinsThanks for the comments Steve. And thanks for the questions ... There is no problem... I do appreciate the interest 🙂 From what I could find, Sheffield, on the day he was hit by an Argentine Exocet missile, was navigate the SW direction (and so I put the course of 225). This thick line tries to represent a small part of a compass. The thinnest line tries to recreate the trajectory and where the missile struck Sheffield. 🙂
Once again, thank you Steve 🙂
