"1750 Ton Destroyer Leader ... June 11, 1918"
Outline cross-section drawings of the hull form and structural
layout of a preliminary design for a large destroyer leader that
was under consideration during mid-1918. This concept called
for conventional destroyer layout with no inner bottom or wing
tanks through the machinery spaces, in contrast to the concept
that added such midships fuel tankage in the larger, 360-foot
design (see Photo #s S-584-139 and -140) under study at this
time. None of these design were adopted for construction, however.
Note: The original document was ink on linen (black on
white).
The original plan is in the 1911-1925 "Spring Styles Book".
