2. Weapons: I would add an AMOS 120mm automatic gun-mortar turret (it has been tested on the CB90/RHBS).
    - Fires all NATO 120mm mortar rounds including PGM; a M933 HE Round: ~31 lbs; (roughly comprable to a 155mm howitzer round)
    - 10 km range (farther than the MK 110)
    - ROF: 16/12 (Max/sustained), but it can shoot 4-rounds in < 8-seconds, and has an MRSI of up to 8-rounds simulteous impact (!)
    :woo_hoo:
    - 48 round magazine
    - Fully automatic

- Pricey, but what else are you going to spend that MFP 11 money on? :heh:

I was not a fan of the AMOS for the larger platform due to lack of range, but using the Mk VI as a platform to get AMOS in close and up waterways would be a great fit.

AMOS was found to be too large for the CB90 (52'x12'6"), so the Sweeds are developing a larger vessel to carry it, measuring 79'1"x17'2" - slightly smaller than the Mk VI platform.

The other option is the Patria NEMO - a lighter single barrel version of AMOS. That might allow the Mk VI to pack a Mk 38 and a NEMO without losing too much space. Nice for close in work

The PC's can act as 'big brother' to the Mk VI when forcing a beach.

In fairness the AMOS has roughly the same range as a 57mm, and mounting on the CB90 was just a technology demonstration.

Would anyone know the colors used in the splinter scheme used on the Cyclone-class patrol boat shown in the initial post?

Thanks.

The original streetfighter before it became a gold plated Rumsfeld misadventure.

I will be doing this project in conjunction with the LCS-1 Flight II. I just received the kit I will be bashing to build up to meet the challenges of the PC Replacement.

It will embark the 76mm SR, Phalanx CIWS, RAM all centerlined with the Mk51 30mm port and starboard with the GAU-19 .50caliber three-barrel gatling gun on the bridge wings and two M240s port and starboard.

The platform is the Hayabusa PG. While expensive, these little models are fantastic! Super fun, and it will really make the project fun.

So, my question for this project:
What kind of main radar should I use? I am considering either the TRS-3D or the SPQ-9B.
