CIWS.
That reminds me, since they are your only close in AA defence, wouldn't it be prudent to give each gun its own FCR?

Four actually, and they have their own directors, two on each side of bridge roof and the hangar.

Royal Navy would have given anything to get ships with three good guns in the Falklands War. Just look at the designs of that day and suddenly 3 is alot... Type 22 anyone? When you get aircraft to close for missilefire, guns are a lifesaver. The 57 and 40 mm guns are amazing against close in targets...

She is designed very much with the Falklands war in mind. The original version also had 4 30mm Goalkeapers aswell. But there wasn´t enough room for them I think.

Re the exhaust question- if you're doing CODAG perhaps one stack for the GT uptake, and a Mack for the diesels? Just a thought.
I like the shading too- intimidatingly impressive!

Can the Mk. 26 fire both SM-2 MR and SM-2ER?
