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

the merwede design of the canterbury is...... well, an ferry. nothing less, nothing more. she ferries troops, anything else you want her to do won't really work. going cheap is not the best option for warships :P
You do have a point there lol.

This ship is mostly mine although I reused the bridge windows, RHIB, and .50 from the modification of Sailor82's Canterbury that I did, but I did much of this by myself, although once again some credit belongs to Sailor825 because I reused his bridge, RHIB, and weapon. The reason I did this is because I had some trouble with those three aspects of the design. I'm just not there yet on Microsoft Paint.

The USS Pinchot is pretty basic design (at least this version) from a concept from BMT Defense Services in the UK called the COHORT EEZ Management Vessel. This vessel is meant to serve as primary multipurpose vessel of the Pennsylvania Naval Militia. She's armed with a 25mm cannon, and two M2 machine guns.

See the PDF below for the design of the ship. I didn't go off BMT's color scheme because this is meant to be a Naval Militia vessel in my little alternate universe.

uhm.........
for something that is completely documented and has even the plans on the pdf you posted, that ships looks awfully...... wrong.
could you try to draw that ship itself first before trying an AU version? I think it would be an welcome addition to the never build folder.
