Yes, its certainly looking better now; at least forward of the Asroc. I would still try and create a little more space aft, to avoid cramping the sam launcher and magazine, but then you'll be into 'mission creep'. And I do like the look of this cruiser, and it has a little bit of the Soviet look, maybe as the Russians seemed to cram as much as possible into a hull. :)
Yes,her philosophy was somewhat Soviet, to design a unit capable of acting autonomous,escorting LHCD Orion or CGH Ulysees in missions to East Mediterranean,as also the two other units mentioned before.But with Western armament and electronics,since HLK is member of NATO.

CGH Ulysees:Edited also with Mk10/OMI-76 (SM-1ER)

Question:Lysandros is a variant of Belknap.Which sonar to use?That of Knox Class (SQS-26CX)?As far as I know,this sonar did not work well in Aegean Sea,in East Mediterranean it had better performance but still not adequated.Now,Spruances had the SQS-53A,which is a solid state SQS-26CX.S-class frigates have the Westinhouse Canada SQS-505.Please help.

Another AU midwar ship,RHN Catapult Ships.Based to Pinguin hull,the Naval Center for Resarch and Development designed this concept in 1937.Originally four of these planned to built from Neorion Shipyard but only two were ready when HLK entered the WW2.Each carried two Dornier Do-24G (also known as K-24),of which 12 built with lisence at KEA (in English State Hellenic Aircraft Factory,SHAF).Unforunately both sunk in Aegean Sea.
Specs as AO Prometheus.

The smallest vessel carried the SSM Adis I was the HSY-44,a fast patrol boat first built for Coastguard in mid-1960's.It featured three firsts for RHN:Was its first vessel powered by Gas Turbines (CODOG propulsion) and first with top speed more than 50kn (previous record was 46kn by Torpedo Boats Nikopolis II Class) and first built entirely from aluminium.Neorion was (and is) a very advanced shipyard so this was not their first in aluminium,because Konon Class had superstucture built from that material since 1954.Although the Aerodyne J750 (a unlicensed copy of Curtiss J-65 from F-84 fighters) prooved problematic in the beginning,the 16 vessels built served for almost 40 years both in Coastal Command and Hellenic Coastguard.Classified as Gunboat,despite the Adis I,which was added in 1973.

Note : HSY-44 is fictional vessel.

That is one brute of an aircraft and I'm not sure why you'd want to.
As far as I'm aware it har plenty range to cover the eastern mediteranean on its own, ro there's little point in putting it onboard a ship.
If you really want a seaplane carrier you'd be better off with several smaller aircraft.

I know about Do-24,but note that this is not only a Seaplane Carrier.RHN AU at that era had eight small seaplane carriers (Thetis & Macedonia Class) and Lysandros was a mobile base for them (like US Seaplane tenders of WW2) capable of support every type of seaplane in RHN.

The LPD HSY-154 is a smaller version of Naukratousa Class,which though,is older.Four Units built in Neorion Shipyard from 2001-2006.

-Total height is same with Rotterdam Class.
-This replaces the old HSY-154.Pleas comment to revise it if nessecary.

please use the new LCVP mk 5 and SMART-S mk2 drawings.
also, you wont be able to fit all the landing craft you listed on board, the rotterdam has space for 2 LCU mk2 and 3 LCVP mk4, the johan de witt has space for 1 LCAC and 4 LCVP's or 2 LCU's and 4 LCVP's (the LCVP's in the davids, like you have now)

the random striping on the structure serve no purpose. if you don't know what those are and what they do, leave them off.
the SMART-S's field of vision is blocked by the funnels.

Modifications

-SMART S Mk2
-I will lower the funnels
-1 LCAC or 2 A-18/A-20
-LCVP/LCU:I will design my own ones,perhars based on NL.
-CB90:How much capacity expects?

"the random striping on the structure serve no purpose. if you don't know what those are and what they do, leave them off".What is their purpose then?
