These ships are also included in the 1.7 version of the printing tool of Battleship Row, but there aren't any stats included - just the cells...
This class can be described as improved Clevelands - only one funnel, giving better AA arcs. Most of the stats are from the Cleveland class entry...
Ships in Class: Fargo (CL106), Huntington (CL107). For the unbuilt ships / numbers, see the Wikipedia entry...
