This is a Venezuelan Mariscal Class Frigate which was converted into an anti-sub escort for the Erusian fleet, After Venezuela Agreed to the Erusian pact and became a part of the Federation. This Particular ship would be used to defend the Royal Sovereign BBGMN-029 from Bevren (opposing democratic nation) submarines.

You've got three sonars on that puppy. Any particular reason why?

You've also got both the old and new torpedo tube drawings (under the boat and just ahead of it).

I was thinking that the ship would be more effective with extra torpedo tubes, if this is silly do say. As for the sonar, to my understanding the forward most is listening sonar, the rear two are active ping sonars. In my mind, it would seem logical that a quickly modified ship would still have some left over features until it were available for longer periods of service, so the old sonar would remain while a more powerful sonar would be quickly mounted. Reason for: ships like these would be under great demand after the loss of several in the Northern Caribbean to surface and air combatants.
If any of this sounds like absolute hogwash please let me know!

I doubt it's going to be any use as a battleship escort. (At least not the type of BB you seem to be pushing for) It's too small, too slow and doesn't have the range.
Sure, the Lupo class can do about 35kts, but that was before you strapped two enormous sonars on her.
The gun/ASROC arrangement isn't going to work unless you rebuild the entire bow area which makes little sense on a 32 year old ship.
The GoalKeeperski's deck penetration will take up most of the space in the hangar.
And then there's the Hedgehog. You've placed a WWII era ahead-throwing weapon on the stern and fixed it so that it can only shoot backwards.

On another note: this will be one of several variations of H-11 escorts that I will be completing, others looking similar but of court being different units and others that have different roles.

Duly noted!

would it then be feasible for a small VLS box for the ASROC?

I concur with the comments above, BUT, I think your level of detail here is bloody amazing.

...besides, the Sucres doesn't look like that today! They're all rebuilt and modernized. I'm in the (sloooowww) process of upgrading both the Lupos and Maestrales as they really appear, so after I've come around posting those, you can use that for your AU.
