Hopefully to see the final real version (with stealthy mast) ;) I may as well do it, as it'll be a little easier than the old Burke style masts. Are you certain about the size and positioning of the bilge keels? They seem unlikely. You're right, they are wrong. They should be much larger and place ...

Already done, I've read the rules and I work everything as .PNGs ;)

Also, how do I submit the drawing for upload?

If it has a dome, it's the SPQ-9A, not the B. The B never has a dome. Never ever ever :x Ok. I dont know lots about radars/subsystems etc, which is why all I know is learnt off the ships I find out about. I just saw the diagram which Colombamike posted which labeled the dome on top of the mast as S...

Ok, new flag, new TACAN needed. FYI Tim, the dome on top of the fore mast is actually a SPQ-9B radar - this info was goven to me by the cross-section diagram on the previous page. TACANs on the San Antonio are above the bridge and I think the hanger too. EDIT: The "RAM" words will be removed when I'...

Apart from the shading, what else do you think it needs?

Looking better. For the hull lines, Hood did an AU version at one point (that can be found here ) so that might be a good guide. Thanks for that Tim, I'll make good use of it. That said, please fix the outdated parts (including TACAN, Satcoms and SLQ-32s). Sorry, I did not see the new SLQ-32 antenn...

Agreed LEUT_East. I once read a review which heavily criticized the single radar director on the FFGs - it make engaging multiple air targets or ASMs very difficult. I know they rejected the Kidds after having lots of problems on the Kanimbla conversions. That definatly left a big hole in the Navy's...
