Class.

This ship was not a 'W-Class', but a 'V-Class'. I don't know how to alter the field in the box to the right and the Links. Perhaps someone more adept with Wiki' can fix this..? Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.244.119.199 (talk) 11:24, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Long Range Conversion.

Viscount continued on convoy escort duty in the North Atlantic until June 1941, when she began conversion to a Long-Range Escort at Liverpool. With the conversion complete, she underwent post-conversion acceptance trials and, having passed them, performed work-ups in December 1941 to prepare for her return to convoy duty, which she did later that month.[3]

I'm a little sceptical about this, as I've read elsewhere that Viscount was specifically NOT converted, as her unusual boiler-arrangement made her unsuitable and that she was therefore not used in that role..... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.244.119.199 (talk) 15:28, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
