Get rid of the Sea Sparrows and put ESSM in their place.

Also, the satcom domes, Move them to the same spot near the aft funnel: You've already got a raised platform there, and in that place they won't block a large part of the coverage of your ECM.

Finally, just use that trainable CEAMOUNT array instead of the SPG-62.

and I think it would be best to use the SMART-S Mk 2. I think that is more in line with both the date the seafar came into use and the SMART-S Mk 1 has not, as far as I know, been used without another main search radar on the ship. (thus serving purely as 3D and targeting radar) while the Mk 2 radar is used as far as I know only as main search radar on board of ships.
other then that, the propeller drawing used now is the old 'bad' one, you might want to seek an better one for that. you know the comments on bow thrusters and sonars, but if you use it, place it lower so the tunnel is shorter and the impact on the ship smaller.
the active stabiliser aft is directly in the way of your propeller axis inside the ship. why not use just one, positioned amidships?
