Strales is not a fire control system, it's the commercial name for the Dart system.
The Dart system requires two radars, the off-mount director and the on-mount tracking radar that keeps track of where the grenade is going.
It cannot be used as a director.

Source Materiel is always welcome.

RHIB : one of the most important part of a Navy, some of them are really particular like the Mk753 designed for operations from the side of the FFG, the Mk773 USV is a version of the Italian SCARPONE, passing for the hydro-jet of the Mk1100 to arrive at the Mk1500 that is a my interpretation of the modern River Patrol Boat with really heavy weapons...

I have some doubts about some of your ships. I have no time now to go in dept, but here are a few pointers
- your very first ship has 2 engines (most likely gas turbines, judging from up and intakes) but 4 propellers. I have not yet seen this fit, can you explain how and why?
- why all the different design lines? I see a lot of italian stuff, which I can understand, but also US ships, at least one french ship and scandinavian influences, if I saw it correct in a quick glance
- may I point at the latest parts, especially the Mk 13 but also the RAM, marlin (the 25 mm is in reality just another gun in the same mount as the 30mm) and I don't really know if I like your OTO 76 Dart mounting.
- you seem to have large diameter torpedo's coming out of the same tubes as small diameter ones, why and how?
- more an question, but what do the green and red blocks and lines represent on your parts sheet?
- why the love for shrouded propellers?

I complement you though, on the fact that none of your ships seem really overweight or badly loaded, but this of course is partially because you used real ships as base. still, good effort, but I would love to see some more of your own design work into it as that is what I like the most about the AU designers here. some background stories on the ships would be nice too, the most interesting thing about ships is the why you have designed that way or chosen those systems.
