I never suggested they weren't capable of it, just that they might not build large military vessels.

It would be nice to see a kit. Wink [;)] Certainly not your ordinary subject. It's a very handsome vessel.

Here's an article about it.

I'll try to host it someplace else tonight.

If anyone is very keen to see it in the meantime, go to

http://www.gettyimages.com

click on "editorial"

then run a search for korean ship.

Three nice pics will pop up, though sadly they have an annoying watermark on them.

Apparently they named it Dokdo to rub Japan's face in a territorial dispute -- never a bad thing to tweak the Japanese when you are Korean! Maybe Trumpeter will release a kit of the ship, because the name is annoying to the Japanese. Laugh [(-D]
