I like the look of those. Got any specs on them? Width, height, weight, engine, etc?

Nice designs!

No doubt impressive designs.

The truck it self:

length: 9 meter
height: 3 meter or more.
width: not to beamy...
Engine: from 350 hp to 1000 hp engine. depending on chassis.

rear wheel drive, with ability to go all wheel drive, with ability to look the dif. on all wheels.
Truck that can drive under water. and can get you everywhere you want to be (almost). Original designed for Haram to transport ICBM, but other capability was needed for them. with a big land mass to defend, the mobility of these vessels was needed over other one of systems.

I'm working on a couple ships, but for the moment I have an upgrade for an other ship.

the Brown class:
As build. This one you have seen already:



Brown class upgraded. Haram upgraded some of the Brown class, the class had been a success in Haram, the new upgrade would give the class better firepower, improved C&C, improved ASW and AAW weapons and systems. Even the sonars was upgraded.

The upgrade pack included a totally redesigned forward missile bay. for 1x32 cell MK41-VLS and one 8 cell MK-41 VLS for Tomahawk or similar. 2 35mm twin AAW guns, replacing 40 mm guns. other thing she received is new fire-control systems, upgrade of the old radar, improving it's range, and detection rate. old Jet- turbines replaced by new and more effective Jet-turbine, improving here range. an another thing they did whit here was redesigning placement of ballast, and adding new ballast tanks.

Looks good.

R class mainly build as an minelayer, but it can also act as an patrol ship, when it's not working as minelayer.




Castle class was build mainly as an Escort for the aircraft carrier fleet. they have had several upgrade up the years, some of the upgrades was to replace problematic systems. other upgrades was to increase internal volume.

I have not measured this, but it looks to me like your Mk 26 on the castle class cannot rotate far enough to let it reload from below
in addition, I am not certain the guidance systems are really up to spec (the STIR 120 is an fairly modern system for gun and MICA control, and while it might be able to do NSSM guidance I have yet to see it do so, the large cupolas most likely have the SM-2 guidance?

other then that, quite nice.

then the mk-13 is a better bet...

the Stir 120 does mainly gun control and for controlling the aft 35 mm's guns, rest is left to the large cupolas. But do you have an suggestion for an replacement for the 120.

do you think that the 20 year upgrade is a bit over the top, or?

STIR 180 or something like that? it all depends on what year you represent. an WM egg might work too, but the real problem here is (I think) that this is an very small ship to have both SM and NSSM.
