Differences between 2 US Navy Class Destroyers

[Martin O'Connor]

I saw on the ships book that there are 2 DD Class Destroyers that are the same as picture and characteristics: Benson and Glaives Class. Is it on purpouse or is it a mistake?

Benson class is known as "repeat Gleaveses"
The only external difference is the shape of the smokestacks.

"The only external difference between the Benson and Gleaves classes was the shape of the stacks; the Bensons' were flat-sided and the Gleaveses' were round."
(from Wikipedia)

In other words ,they are similar enough to be using the same model.

You know, back in Atlantic Fleet, British destroyer classes A,B,C and D uses the same class, E/F uses the same class, G/H, J/K/N, O/P.... they all use the same class, same model.

I see, but in the game, if you don't recognize exaclty the ship's class, your accuracy is less... Historically speaking, nothing to say: you're right, but in the game...

KFG responded elsewhere that you will also get the subtype bonus, same as getting the "right" subtype.

Here's how I comprehend it:
Sendai, Natori and Kuma are very similar, so as long as you identify a Sendai-class as any one of the three, you get the subtype bonus equal to identifying it as a Sendai.
