I to cant find 'ocean class destroyer'
but I put that down to my (lack of) google fue

please tell us what it is ? real / your own / any details
JSB

oh, sorry it is a design I am making. I just finished it tale a look.

do you like it?

...That prop must go, I believe its pretty much the most hated old part.

The hull is very low in freeboard, its essentially a modern breastwork monitor

The 4.5'' Gun is British and an outdated part

You seem to have two conflicting radars there

VLS has a greater deck penetration than your hull depth, I'd recommend increasing it a fair amount

At least you seem to be using the updated harpoon parts

There's no such thing as "nothing left to draw" If you can down 10 pints and draw, you're doing alright by my standards

Nice to see somebody else likes designing ships more than drawing them .

A new DD would have,
- a helicopter
- would only use VLS
- add stuff by Rodondo

But Keep it going you only learn by making mistakes (well I am learning a bit each time).
JSB

- The forward VLS is to far forward, you have no deck space there and bellow deck space there.
- The weight of the VLS will most likely be to much.
- The hull size looks like an frigate size not destroyer.
- why using an Mk26 GMLS when you have VLS. it is also to heavy to have up there.
- wrong prop, and to big ruder.
- You either use SPY-1 or APAR, never both.
- you have to mark where the superstructure is angling with and dark grey line.
- why do you always use old parts. my suggestion is to go to the folder there you have all your's parts saved to, and delete them all. then you go and download all the correct and updated parts from here:

and some stuff that I have collected from other ships.

I really wanted to put on a gun- should I put on a Bofors 57 mm gun? I'll also work on the hull and make it deeper. I'm just wondering what you mean by stuff by rodondo?

he refers to the points rodondo made above
I'll see what you do with the above points before I add anything.

A Bofors 57mm is a rather light weapon, something like a 76mm or 127mm gun would be more ideal for the size
