as  the cushing is my only option  of a sq bridge fletcher class ship

i want to do 2 uss cassin youngs   1 as  in wwii and the other as is the current museum

funny i was born in boston spent my whole life here   now i only live 40 min from there  never been to the ship

 

anyway  the newer ver according to the navyship historical assoc  has hedgehogs   the orig (old) ver did not  does anyone make p/e or wht metal or resin ones    thanks

In 1:700 the Cushing is probably one of the better options.  

In addition:

Skywave made an old square-bridge in the two-fer green box.    Later it was the genesis for the Pitroad Callaghan  (now OOP).   There are problems with the molded-on midships 40mm tubs.

Trumpeter makes a 1:700 Sullivans in cooperation with PitRoad.  It is a newer tool than the old Callaghan.  It is pretty nice.

Samek made an excellent square-bridge in resin & brass as The Sullivans.

PitRoad makes a series of aftermarket styrene equipment sets which include Hedgehogs.
