USN Clemson Class Destroyer
The Clemson class destroyers were a class of 156 ships. Built in 1918 ~ 1922's.
The ships were operated by a number of navy's. United States Navy, United States Coast Guard, Royal Navy, Royal Canadian Navy, Soviet Navy, Japanese Imperial Navy and, for a short time the Royal Netherlands Navy operated the HMS Campbeltown. Which was later used for the raid on the dock gates of St. Nazaire.
As the Clemson class are almost identical to the Wickes class Destroyers, main difference are internally, the model can also be used to represent a Wickes class Destroyer. Bases for both classes are provided.

There are a number of bases provided, Clemson Class Bases, Wickes Class Bases and HMS Campbeltown Bases, text recessed and the text raised. I used the recessed version for FDM printed bases. Finally a base without text is also included. Do not forget to also re-scale the bases if you print in 1/1200 or 1/1800 scale.
Also included a 1/1800 scale pre-supported model which I used for the test-prints on my Anycubic Mono SE (0.05mm layer) using standard resin. Use at your own risk, might be best you create your own supported files, which prints best on you own printer. Some parts are rather delicate, mainly the gun barrels, and you will need to remove support carefully.
The base was printed on an Ender 5 pro (0.16 mm layer) standard PLA. But could also be printed in Resin if you want (no supported file provided)
