Excellent work.

Fantastic work. These vessels have been widely reported to be capable of launching the Popeye Turbo, an indigenous Israeli SLCM which is rumoured to be nuclear-capable. It would be interesting to see this depicted although sources are understandably sketchy at best.

I know, but I do not know how a Popeye turbo SLCM look like, the size or the length of the missile.
Feel free to provide me a drawing and I will add to it.

Google?

The Popeye Turbo missile is probably similar to if not identical with the Israeli submarine-launced cruise missile carried on the Dolphin-class submarines. The baseline Popeye missile with a range of 45 miles has a diameter of 21 inches, and is nearly 16 feet long. For comparison, the American MK-48 heavy torpedo is 21 inches in diameter, and 19 feet long, while the BGM-109 Tomahawk SLCM is 20.4 inches in diameter and 20.5 feet long [including the booster motor], and the Russian SS-N-21 SLCM is similar in configuration and dimensions to the American Tomahawk.

That is the crispest-looking sub drawing I've ever seen DP.

Isn't that the AGM-84H/K SLAM-ER?

searched for 10 seconds more, and I think this is the missile. picture inside the link.

the missile is probably 17 feet long. if we looks at the picture I posted above... anyway we doesn't need to draw it exactly to the size in shipbucket since we always draw missiles bigger than they are... on purpose!

I'm not really sure, is it HMS Iride?

Nice drawing!

The prefix for Italian ships during the period of existance of the Kingdom of Italy was "RN" which stands for "Regia Nave" (Royal ship).

So it would be RN Iride.
