Updated drawing.
How should I classify it, missile BB or missile BC?

Not sure. Unless it's armoured I'd lean towards calling it a BCG rather than a BBG.

Depends on the armour, but the guns don't really fit either categories

How says I was thinking about 16'' guns?
I thinking more of 6-8'' guns.

Again. Re-dun-dant. She'd have a surface group with her no doubt which only adds to the amount of firepower. The things it has now are perfectly suitable.

Thank U for making a BBG!! I was thinking that U could have less non-VLS launchers and maybe less secondaries and more CIWS missiles like RAM. Other than that I live the idea and thank you for making a modern missile battleship. I do not see enough.

What the hell?
You've got arbitrarily good and copious VLS. Why do you want vulnerable, slow, unreliable and expensive rotating and/or above-decks launchers? Why the wing turrets? If you want them, why are they so high? What mission is this ship supposed to execute anyway?
The whole thing makes very little sense.

Nice work here Heuhen.May I have the Pr.9087? I am thinking of use it firstly for Norway AU,perhaps for RHN in the next decade (it will be in "RHN at 2030").Also a fast ferry could built on that hull.

Because of the time it was built, if it was build today it would of course be with VLC instead.
I'm going to change the location of the weapons a bit:
1 * a dual 135mm cannon on the foredeck.
3 * VLC right behind the 135mm cannon
1 * large missile launcher behind VLC.
6 * Box Launched Missile.
VLC behind the superstructure.
Aircraft and helicopter deck on the aft deck with two 76mm on each side.
some ciws systems and RAM in a form of VLC.
