Thanks again for comments Comerades. Well, I dont't think these kind of "ultra-stealth" designs are anyones cup of tea nowadays. I mean; as far as I know, the concept of stealth has evolved from strict forms to new materials/paints and hiding emissions etc.
But since I like the hull form of the Heuhen´s original, here is updated (may I say more reasonable) version

That looks better to my eyes.

Thanks Hood. I don't want anyones eyes hurt

Time for something else.. A Coastal defense ship for archipelago of Gulf of Finland and Barents Sea. Old minelayer upgraded with a domestic 155mm gun, MLG 27, Stinger Manpad x2 and Camcopter S-100 UAVs for targeting.

Eh, I like the premise of it but something seems off about her. Surely as well if she's coastal she wont be going out too far into the Barents?

That bow structure certainly looks like it is designed for heavy weather.

Great work sebu but I think its better to give the Skarven a kind of autocanon (40mm)... That means less firepower against hard targets but more fire power against "soft" targets like RHIBs or even small boats which fits better for a coastal defense vessel IMHO... for the heavy fire support you have your ships with 76mm or your artillery...

Nice aditions. Interesting concept that Skarven design, reminds me of a "beefed up" AMOS-concept. Question tough, does it have slight too big draught for to be truly effective in the Finish archipelago?

Thanks for comments chaps.
I dropped draught a bit and it's quite the same than current FN minelayers. Obviously it cannot sail "freely" in archipelago but in certain waterways and the main task is mining and defending them with better range than AMOS. Now it's not capable going too far to Barents

40mm canon would be better of course but on that spot, I cannot use anything that need deck penetration.

Experimenting with smaller vessels, again

Very nice and compact!
