Wonder if there’s a way to verify if that’s a drawn image or actual ship info. I kinda doubt a ship that size could...ah...”make a Q” or circle back like that - it’s MASSIVE and would have to slow down to almost drift to perform that maneuver, pivoting rather than sailing.

Interesting point.

But even if it did NOT make a Q, even if it’s a “drawn image”, that makes you wonder who would draw that image and why. So still of interest, IMO!

Taking into account the scale of the map...it’s a good nautical mile or more across that circle so it could easily perform that maneuver (ex-carrier OOD here :)
