So I'm stuck now. I want to swap around the RHIB and the Harpoons because I believe the rear location for the Harpoons would just be a better launching location as there is nothing behind them and the crew won't have to walk past the missiles to get to the RHIB. Also, I'm afraid that the water will ...

http://s22.postimg.org/4zwc18btd/Asp_class_Fast_Attack_Craft_4.png I'm still playing catch-up to de-modernizing this boat. Black space was a holdover for torpedoes as well as the stealth anchor. Here are two versions. Kinda looks like a Hamina or Hayabusa now. In the 1980s, navies were adding steal...

Thanks. Guess I'll have to change things.

http://s14.postimg.org/irzyfhrxt/Asp_class_Fast_Attack_Craft_3.png I've been really busy so I finally had a small amount of time to work on it. This is where I'm at now. The top hull would be the originally built design; the bottom hull would be a later modernization/rebuild. Still don't have the t...

The USN were working with stealth designs in the early 1980s for a FAC. It was called the Sea Knife, I believe. Remember that compared to most other FAC, I have an extra 20m in length.

Heuhen, if you're telling me I should call is a corvette, then I'll call it a corvette. Ship nomenclature varies depending on the country. The US would call this a missile patrol boat of some kind. Other navies would call this a FAC, missile boat, or corvette. I may be able to low the center of mass...

I would argue against removing the 76mm for mission reasons. This is, as I understand, a missile patrol boat meant to go against Soviet forces in European theaters. These Soviet forces include a lot of similar FACMs, the most recent of which carry 76mm guns. Let's not forget the lessons of the Yom ...

I would ditch the Phalanx or replace the 76mm with the phalanx. for now she is similar in armament to some light-corvettes. You have to remember you need space for weapons inside the ship too. the 76 mm gun need space under deck. missiles in this solution need space under deck. ammo for the Phalanx...

I have a few Qs, - If you have a 76mm can it be your CIWS rather than have a phalanx as well ? (and do you need full stelth retractable gun thing ? especially if you have the phalanx on top) - Can you fit a small rib (sideways) and folding crane on a smaller back deck ? (limits you to slow launch a...

http://s18.postimg.org/mq2fkd2p5/Asp_class_Fast_Attack_Craft_1.png I do believe I am about finished with the hull above the waterline. I added two 20mm cannons along the midships and two .50 cal machine guns aft. The mast is how I like it. Now I just have to work on the underwater hull. Do you thin...
