Aerial starboard side view of the armed merchant cruiser HMS Kanimbla by No 2 Squadron RAAF. She is armed with seven 6-inch guns of which four can be seen forward on the forecastle and in the well deck. The portside guns are trained on the broadside. Two of the three after guns can also be seen, immediately behind the superstructure and on the poop. Unlike the forward guns the after guns are not shielded. A covered 3-inch aa gun is mounted abreast the funnel. Windows at the corner and sides of her bridge structure have been plated in. She remains painted in her owners’ colors.
