I checked the hull space, and decide, that two "Sea Slug" launchers will be perfectly fit in the main shi structure, without removing the main systems. And if you can have the ship, that could do the work of four "County"-class... |

I see some serious issues with this design..... but I will not reply until I did some research on it + see an non-resized image. |

The most obvious flaw is that there's not enough space for the forward launcher's magazine. The SeaSlug was a beam-riding missile with enormous boosters, and it was stowed horizontally, and in an unassembled state, necessitating the assembly of it before it was ejected out on the launcher rails. Even your blurry pic reveals that this magazine and assembly station, will obliterate the CIC, a whole host of necessary office and crew spaces, as well as eating into the forward uptakes. There was a reason why the counties were as long as they were, and had the shape they did! |

Is that impossible to move crew spaces somewere else? Acoording to my calculation (not totally accurate, i must admit!), the lenght for the magazine is quite enought. ![[ img ]](http://navycollection.narod.ru/library/belfast/fig7.jpg) According to scheme (not include the obviously removed turret magazine) the modernisation will include space of: - Crew messroom - Forward storage rooms - Rear crew and officers bathrooms Are they reallu cannot be moved somewere else? |
