USS Boxer CV-21, for CFS2

The Fox Four Design Group: http://www.simviation.com/lair/cfs2korea.htm

This is a completely new carrier made to emulate USS Boxer in 1950 Korean service. She has an adjusted takeoff position and a modified DP that allows her to absorb a more realistic amount of damage than the stock carriers. She supports long wakes. Her pitch and roll motions have been dampened to facilitate takeoff and landing.

This model is of USS Boxer circa 1950. 

The textures are only appropriate for the period 1949 - 1952. All aircraft carriers changed their flightdeck markings like a women changes her dress, USS Boxer was no exception.

This model was made to reasonably accurate drawings. Consequently, landing is more difficult as the deck is narrower and at lower level than the default carriers.
The arrestor wires you see are PARTS and not textures and are set at the proper height above the deck. Due to CFS2 not accepting more than 4 wires, you have 3 wires together and 1 apart (last gasp).
On take-off, don't worry about the wires, you will run over them, just don't lower your tailhook.
This model also has deck lights for night missions. They are accurate for the ship in real life, and are adequate for use in CFS2.
