and remove the sonar hanging under the seahawk, I believe seahawk at that time also have another colour scheme. REALLY Great job!

Really, really good! However, I do not agree with either Tim or Erik about the phalanx and the SPS-49. First of all, on the Iowas, the '0'-position of the four phalanx-systems were athwardship, i e barrels pointing towards either beam - not fore-and-aft. Since we do have on the parts sheets a variant that suits the correct arrangement of the weapons installation, then it should be encouraged, rather than discouraged to position them the correct way! In other words: they need not be pointed fore-and-aft! Having the as TimothyC suggests will make the drawing erronenous! About the SPS-49, I believe this variant should replace the old, rather bland one. I know for sure that I'm going to use paul's variant on my own (saved) sb-pictures. It's so much more acutely detailed and much closer to the real thing!

Except The zero position isn't the standard. The standard is fore-and-aft, unless such set up isn't physically possible (which it is on the Iowas). I'd also point out that the outward facing Phalanx have not been approved as official versions as of yet.
