A few problems:
1. Blast from the Y mount.
2. I just see a Terrier mount in place of the X turret. Where is your magazine, reload handling. See the Cleveland CG conversions, Belknap and Leahy class.
3. I think you may need 2 target illuminators.

The Buccaneer also operated off the HMS Hermes, a modified Centaur class light carrier. That was a plane about the size of an A-6 Intruder.

As for the "odd caliber" for a light cruiser, OTO built a 135mm/45 DP for the Guisseppe Garibaldi cruiser as part of the conversion to a CG.

Ikara, triple 324mm tubes amidships? I am finally playing around with the parts sheet using Microsoft Paint, but I am s...
