Gearing Class Destroyer DDR-714 William R Rush Model 3D

These models render very well and look very realistic using good animation and rendering technique. The model is very detailed. It includes many animateable features: guns and turrets, anti-aircraft borfors, 20mm cannons, davits, whaleboats, hatches, propellers and rudders. Flags can be easily added and animated. Anchors can be animated with the addition of anchor chains. Handrails, ladders and hatches appear through the model. Life Rafts are included through the model and can be launched. This model was built with textures and is available in 11 different formats. The Gearing class is a group of 98 destroyers built for the US Navy during and shortly after World War II. The Gearing design was a minor modification of the immediately preceding Allen M. Sumner class. The hull was lengthened 14 ft (4.3 m) amidships, creating more storage space for fuel, thus giving the ships a larger range than the Sumner class.
