Doesn't Trumpeter do a 350th USS San Francisco?

CA-32 New Orleans class 
CL-40 Brooklyn class 
CA-45 Wichita class 
CL-51 Atlanta class

Also Oakland Class (Modified Atlanta, 2 less main turrets)

CL-95 OAKLAND
CL-96 RENO
CL-97 FLINT
CL-98 TUCSON

Oakland is available in 1:700, and I believe in 1:350

Far from complete. Look at the Navsource Cruisers list, start at about CL-4 and go up at least 100 hull numbers.

*Edit* I just noticed that you said CLASS instead of just ships... my mistake.

I think (don't know!) that you can get ALL of these in 1/700, in either styrene or resin...
