Not sure if these have been shown as yet.

I'm not quite sure, but how useful would CIWS guns and missile systems be when mounted in open side bays? Pretty limited arc of fire, I would think.

I particularly like that gazillion-cell VLS. :roll: And I'm sure the helo pilots really like taking off and landing in that side bay.

What I am wondering, is how high their IQ is. Judging by these drawings, it can`t possible be noteworthy high.

They are quite serious actually. I know that Inutoland has an entire Wiki built up for his navy with a page for each class. If he was doing it as a joke I doubt he would go to so much effort. His largest failing I believe is that he doesn't quite understand just what goes into putting a ship drawing together to make it realistic and/or feasible. I've been learning alot here (although I'm near certain some of you believe my learning curve more resembles a flat line :lol: ), and actually, I think Inutoland could as well. He's not stupid, and not a "god-modder" by any stretch of the imagination, he could just use some guidance and instruction.

I don't know that in Inutolands case I would go quite that far. He isn't ignorant, like I said above, he just doesn't understand a number of things that go into drawing a reasonable ship.

Definately worse than casemates.

I am kinda offended by this. didn't we all start like that? or even worse? does that mean our IQ's were low when we started shipbucket and are now higher? don't think so -.- :?

I ask of you to prove me wrong. Not say I am wrong, but prove it, because then I will have learned something new.

Yeah, there's a difference between having a high IQ and having the understanding (not to mention training) of naval engineering.
