It's not so much impossible but you have all of you missile systems forward.
If you look at the Bremen class you'll see what I mean. NSSM forward, RAM aft. You'll have better firing angles against most threats with a revised placement compared to what you have now.

Mk38 isn't a CIWS in the typical sense. Its main purpose is to engage things like speed boats and other floating lower yield targets. RAM is an anti missile system with secondary anti-aircraft/helicopter capabilities. Hence my preference for my layout.

Archer-class coastal corvettes (fast attack crafts in international standards) are a class of large, superfast, stealth missile craft in service with the Cabindan Navy. The boats were formerly classed as missile attack crafts but, from 2009, the Cabindan Navy has described them as coastal corvettes because their seaworthiness is seen as comparable to corvettes. They were built by Germany from 2005-2009, according to the indigenous design of the Cabindan Navy. It is characterised by its speed, reduced signatures, small size with heavy weapon load and its littoral combat capability. The Archer-class has an air-cushioned monohull (surface effect) which, with waterjet propulsion, provides high speed and manoeuvrability.

why use old parts, when we (Ace..., hood, me, Colosseum, etc.) have used many hours to draw the correct parts?
