Range of BB Arkansas (same as destroyer???)

[OrderInChaos]

Is the Range of the BB Arkansas supposed to be the same as a destroyer???

Here in this photo the BB Arkansas is selected, and the range is highlighted in green shade and the pink arrow showing range of 4 (HMS Warpite has a 12 hex range).

BUT Destroyers have the same range as the BB Arkansas (pink arrow). Could the range be wrong for the BB Arkansas or just intended to be 4? Thank you in advance for your answer.

After her 1942 refit, her largest gun was 5” (18 of them) / 12 50 caliber and 6 51 caliber. Don.

Awesome! So her range is 4 as intended. Thank you so much for your answer and super quick response. So in essence she is a "glorified" destroyer ;-P

Correction . . . Getting the Wyoming confused with the Arkansas / Apologies.

The Arkansas had her 12” guns throughout WWII. Wyoming was converted to a AA training ship (loosing all her 12” guns) in 1944.

Need to chat with the Designer / More to follow.
