As this is my baby (with CGBL) I've been keeping her updated, and after getting my first Strengths test back, I gave myself a break and have patched her up:



Updated Parts

• Ship's boat. (Thank you WhyMe)
• AN/SLQ-32 (Myself)
• Phalanx (I don't remember)
• SPS-49 (Miho!)

Also there was a hull change where I increased the height of the hanger structure aft.

Looks good Tim. So this proposal preceeded Ticonderoga?

Well before. There is no direct linear progression, but this design was an austere response to the perceived costs of an AEGIS DLGN. It was the low end of AEGIS development while the CSGN (which had it's day in the sun slightly later) was the high end.

Glad to see the first use of that SPS-49. Inspiration doesn't strike me often nowadays, but when it does it REALLY strikes.

And that DG/AEGIS is really coming together. Still, glad that they didn't go with it.
