| Really cool gun design, buuuuuuut, with that gap between the breech and the bore, you better hope they never get misaligned or you're gonna have one bad day for the gun crew. "Bridge, port weapons mount, we done blowed ourselves up."  Plus, I'm liking your missile cells. Much preferred to tube or rail launchers. With the number of weapons, and your stated length, I'd figure this to be in the frigate or corvette class. What's the propulsion? Power? Artificial gravity and inertial compensators? |

| See if you can mount 2 Turrents on the bow of the ship. Thoose turrets could me 200mm Railguns. oooooo that some rockem sockem robots L337ness right there. I dont know about putting a Verticale launch system that close to a turrent mount. I would maybe advise a smaller defense turrent or counter messaure system. Keep the Vertical launch system on the main hull towards midships. but that is just my oppinion. |

| Cool ship! Since it's only 85 meters, you can put on some very large long range missiles, perhaps on that wing behind the bridge? A bit like Global Aircraft -- Lun Ekranoplan |

Ekranoplan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia To the OP. I like your ship a lot. It seems very functional and to the point. I could also see it being a large yacht. | ||

| I was a bit worried about that name as he is also strongly associated with architects. Thus I left him out. |

| ok. i made some small updates, because i am a little bit out of time, but right now i know what kinda ship it will be. it is going to be a system patrol craft (spc), not much faster then 1.5 ftl, cruisingtime not more then 4 weeks until it needs to be refuled. it is compareable to some coast guard vessel with the same job to do but in space. i made some changes with the ripped section and the wing. processes will take a while here at home so i can't work as i want to. stephan |
