I hope you take a moment to reflect on the silliness of a '70s-'80s frigate attempting to have four missile fire control channels, one more than a Kidd of twice the displacement. There is more to naval electronics than the antenna you stick on the top of a deckhouse, especially in that era. Guidanc...

I wasn't making a pronouncement on the rule, merely my understanding of it. I apologize if this wasn't apparent in my response.

... and until you've done that, don't put your name on the drawing! For, what have you done sofar? Really nothing but changed some colors, right? Once you change it substantially enough - then you may add your signature too! As far as I know, if you change the drawing in *any* fashion from the orig...

I was presuming the two Mk 92 mod 2 would offer two channels, and the pair of STIR-240s would offer one each, for 6. though I'm a bit unclear on some of the specifics. The problem appears to be, as you've pointed out, is that each CAS only contains 1 illuminator, even if two channels are offered.

That's a very tempting arrangement, though less capable than the CAS, which even the early one will offer 2 surface engagement channels for the gun, (granted I don't require that much) 1 air engagement channel, for the gun, and 1 air engagement channel for missiles, either NSSM or SM-1. The later ve...

I think the one in the anime might have a different AA gun arrangement, judging from that scene where the possessed gunner fires it. I'll have to go back and view it again.

I'm probably going to go with the non-mack version, due to Ace's comments about the powerplant and shaft arrangement. It looks like the easiest thing to do is going to be to replace the SPS-48 with the SPS-49. Since the frigates are going to be working with older DDs, I'll put the SPS-48 on the DDs,...

Well, it's either live with topweight, or lose capability. As long as it isn't dangerous topweight, I can likely live with it. Otherwise, I can attempt to give a little more hull draft.

Would the later version of SPS-39 be a viable alternative as a lighter weight set?

I thought I got rid of those things.... I guess what I deleted on the hangar really *were* vent hatches... Should be fixed now.

The duplicate eggs are intentional, however, though I am considering replacing them with STIRs. The design is supposed to be somewhat gold plated.
