. Introduced in 1942, the Fletcher-Class destroyers quickly became the mainstay of the fleet. The Fletchers saw action at Guadalcanal and played a major role in almost every other Pacific battle. Destroyers performed convoy escort and anti-submaring warfare (ASW) duties. The Fletchers were also formed into destroyer squadrons (including the legendary DesRon 21) that purposely went "into harm's way". Following the War, Fletchers continued to serve for decades, serving in the Korea and Vietnam conflict. Some are still serving with foreign navies. Three Fletchers have been preserved on public display: The Sullivans (DD-537, located at), the Kidd (DD-661, located at Baton Rouge, Lousiana) and the Cassin Young (DD-793, located at Charlestown Navy Yard, Massachusetts next to the frigate USS Constitution).

THIS IS NOT A "DOWNLOAD & FLY" PACKAGE. SO PLEASE TAKE YOUR TIME TO READ THE DOCUMENTATION PROPERLY BEFORE YOU INSTALL & USE IT. I'M SURE IT WILL ANSWER MOST OF YOUR QUESTIONS. Not every detail may be relevant for you, since there a lot of background info. During development of stuff like this, I learn a lot of peculiarities of FSX; and I tend to write them down in such a README, if only for my own memory :) So maybe it helps you to understand better how it all works. ==== intended for use with Bruce Fitzgerald's Space Shuttle Atlantis === *** To use this gaugeset for other aircraft , see Appendix-1 of the readme ***
