Beautiful drawing as always, Psi. If I'm not mistaken, though, the TAK120 is 46 calibers, not 60.

Psi.. perhaps you can put this into you'r AU that Norway managed to get this ships (see link bellow, for other people it is on Norwegian so sorry for that!)

I think it has a RoF of 60 rpm... somethimes that figures in its name.

Very Impressive My only querie is the telescopic hanger, which is the full hull width, not something I'm familiar with, most of the ones I've seen are inboard to accomodate the one helicopter; here you could accomodate two, bit I'm not sure if that's ever been done.

About half the helicopter fits in the "normal" hangar and the telescopic part is for covering the left over part, it could fit two helos, but I doubt two helos could be embarked. No room to put the extra one down with one on the flightdeck

Thanks. But I'm still not sure why you've gone for hangar out to the edge of the hull, if you can only ship the one helicopter; I'm thinking that it means a wider telescopic extension for no useful purpose. Though, looking at the available depth of the main hangar you might still accomodate a second helicopter by adding more depth and not bothering with the extension.

The Telescopic part is on the starboard sid, workshops are on port side, so the extension iis just half the ship. have not drawn the port side out of lazyiness
