Fantastic design.

Stunning work! Looks good enough to be real.

Why did you toss the SeaSparrow?

Source Materiel is always welcome.

To offset the extra weight of the 2 x CIWS units.

I doubt that would be neccesary, as you have already lightened a lot near that position by emptying the ikara magazines.

What is the little missile midships? It looks like a mini-Harpoon. I do agree that you probably want to keep Sea Sparrow.

If it's close enough to cast a shadow, I think the flying house wins initiative.

Bronies are like the Forsworn. Everyone agrees that they are a problem but nobody wants to expend the energy rooting them out.

"That is a very graphic analogy which aids understanding wonderfully while being, strictly speaking, wrong in every possible way."

I think it's still an Harpoon, just drawn at the correct scale instead of slightly exaggerated for detailing purposes as for Shipbucket practice.

I included the Sea Sparrow system on HMAS Sydney as a comparison.

Great ship but I've never been a fan of the "to-scale" missiles. I prefer the oversized versions that at least show a bit of detail and form.
