I am looking at the Zeven Provincien. I can't even see the funnel on it. ._.

But alright. I'll keep working on the funnel.

the LCF is an CODOG ship and has the funnels as following:
- gas turbine funnel and intakes between the harpoon and the RHIB, (well actually those are 2 funnels, going to the sides)
- diesel funnels on the hangar, just in front of the torpedo tubes

Alright.

Well for now I have made it so the Funnel looks to be on the side as opposed to the center line.

An improvement I hope?

I have made it so that it would be a funnel on each side of the Hangar superstructure.
I have fitted it with 2 CIWS units and 1 20mm gun on the Stern.

The stern is not a good place for a weapon. Bad arc. Put two or four 50 cals or 20mms on the superstructure. Preferably two in front and two aft. The funnels don`t have to be on the very edge, they can be slanted outwards. But it`s your call.

Regarding the funnels I have begun to get used to them and liking them.

What should I do with the stern then if weapons are going up on the hangar superstructure? This ship wouldn't really need a towed sonar array.

Why wouldn`t it need a towed array? Every ASW ship needs a towed array. Otherwise the ship would be blind to any sub-surface targets from behind. You don`t need anything else on the stern but the helipad.

Well, this ship isn't primarily designed for ASW, its a missile destroyer for AAW/ASuW/Land Strike in support of a amphibious force, protected by the rest of the naval task force.

Edit: TBH I probably could/should give her a ASW capability, give her allround strike capabilities.
