Second World War Destroyer Escort Challenge
Welcome to the Second World War destroyer escort challenge! For those unaware, the United States built several hundred destroyer escorts during the Second World War. These valiant vessels escorted merchant convoys during the Battle of the Atlantic and saw extensive service elsewhere. USS Samuel B. Roberts, for example, was sunk during the famed confrontation between Taffy 3 and Admiral Kurita's Centre Force. Other navies built equivalent types, such as the frigates of the Royal Navy or the Imperial Japanese Navy's kaibōkan. In this challenge, participants are asked to draw a fictional destroyer escort that could have existed during the Second World War period (1 September 1939 to 2 September 1945). The destroyer escort does not have to participate in the Second World War, or even belong to a real-life nation. It only needs to conform to the given time frame. As a destroyer escort is a smaller ship, this challenge is a perfect opportunity for new members and FD scale artists to explore SB scale. I hope we will see many excellent entries over the coming month.
Design Requirements
- Your submission must depict a destroyer escort - a ship designed to escort merchant convoys at sea - or an equivalent type (e.g. frigate, kaibōkan, geleitboot).
- The included drawing should depict the ship on a specific date between 1 September 1939 and 2 September 1945.
- Maximum design speed of the ship must not exceed 28 knots (52 km/h, 32 mph).
- The ship should possess anti-submarine warfare equipment.
The challenge was judged by community poll. It was won by Kiwi Imperialist.

The idea was an ASW/ASuW vessel from about 1980. About everything from a VDS tug to an Iroqouis was acceptable. The ships were restricted to real life or close to real life weapons.
The challenge was judged by Erik_T and TimothyC. The scores ended up with a tie between Rowdy's "Vampire Class" and Ace's "Vandalia Class". To this end Rowdy36 won the "Best Practical" award while Ace won the "Best Totally Awesome" Award.
