Thanks, that's why I thought it would make an interesting model.A beautiful model of a horrifically ugly ship. A side wheeler ironclad is definitely unusual, even for the Confederate Navy.
Just wached a youtube video on the Cairo a half hour ago. I'd like to have been around the designers when they where working on it.All of these ironclads served an important part of our history. We have a museum not far from my home of the USS Cairo. Interesting of what is in the minds of the designers.
