Re: Site revamp - potential new way to organize drawings

I would say incorporate the very best AU work. Stuff like Blackbuck's, LEUT_East's and such work. Being honest stuff like my shizzle isn't up to scratch. Admittedly Admins may need to police this a bit more.

On the question of Personal Designs I don't really know.

Just my two pence...

Re: Commonwealth of Malpusian States

Does this work better then? Would placing SSGWs either side of the forward Sea Wolf work or due to beam become an issue then? Does the placement and design of the funnel now work better?

Re: Commonwealth of Malpusian States

How is this now then?

I've also changed the aft mast but something about her with regards to length is my worry. Would intergrating the exhausts into the two superstructures be a good way to alleviate this?

Re: Commonwealth of Malpusian States

Major WIP but does this work?

The idea is for a double ended AAW crusier circa 1980 carrying two Sea Kings for ASW and Standard 4.5 inch gun

Re: carrier advice

If France hadn't withdrawn the aircraft would have probably come much sooner IMHO and you would be looking at about 98 so I would guess legacy a/c could last that long.

Re: carrier advice

I was thinking more in regards of Cat and Trap cycles as that's really what holds back naval aircraft with regards to age
