the anchor of your burke clone will slamm into the sonar dome.
she also seems a bit underweaponed as your removed the aft VLS, and the ASW is not getting better by moving the torpedo tubes away from the magazine.
the other vessel is interesting, but I doubt about her stability and abilities.

The aft SPY-1 faces are going to have an increased blind spot thanks to the hanger being in the way. They should be raised up similar to what happened to the Flight 2A.

If I'm not mistaken the second one is a sort of LCSish type ship and judging by the shading she could have a ramform hull which would help quite a bit with stability. She won't be fast though.

and note that he is using the hull from my drawing of the Fridtjof Nansen class frigate, also some small bits here and there from the same vessel...

Sorry about the credits heuhen, I will fix it as soon as possible. In any case both ships are a wip. I take consideration of your comments.

if you are still working on her, take a look at the slightly updated burke that is now on the main site. it has some flaws corrected that this one still has, such as the height of the forward phalanx platform, doors in the aft of the forward structure, bridge and some other details

Nice drawings!
I'm not going to comment on the technical side, but given the historical considerations, one would rather expect that Spanish Republic would use rather Soviet/Russian ships and equipment.

Well, I have the opinion that a Republican victory in the Civil War over the rebels was passing by a decisive support of United States, France and the United Kingdom. To this we must add the Spanish position in the second world war, where Soviet support would be null. However U.S. support would be great, to be able to use Spain as a platform to attack the occupied Europe, even in the case that the Iberian peninsula was also occupied in part by Germans
