Great drawing - do you have an overhead view?

Your designs are fascinating.
I would enjoy seeing more of these
Keep up the good work

Well, not to be outdone, the SyFy channel was advertising a movie "American Warships" - a low budget "Battleship" movie for this weekend.
I guess everybody is into having the USN kick alien butt....

Since my entry was accidentally deleted due to it being an attachment, here is the Revised and correctly credited Kendrick class FFG: http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b32/Donovan_NightHunter/FFG-3JohnKendrickclass.png This design is a bit confusing You have the Mack structure associated with a ...

I like this thread. It is nice to see this kind of AH carried out though many years.

They were replaced by 11 twin 12.8cm DP mounts. The space where the single 5.9" mounts were had light Flak guns (probably ...

With a design like that I doubt that there would be room for an ASROC magazine located forward of the launcher (the magazine on the FF's I served on were a fairly large) The Sea Sparrow launcher is in a precaious position. It would be very vulnerable to being struck by a helicopter landing/taking ...

I was looking around in the archive, and I found this ship... http://www.shipbucket.com/Never%20Built%20Designs/Netherlands/FF%20(M)%20Light%20Frigate%201.gif anybody has any intel about it, as it seems to have some major flaws (most notably, all CIWS arnament up front and the lack of directors) so ...
