Very nice. Suggested you look at the bronco type 55 destroyer. I saw one the other day at the mall. It looks like the design they r thinking about ..

Funny you say that, because you made me consider the possibilities of not the Tpe 55 but instead the Daring-class DDG

and fit it with 64 VLS instead of 48 and perhaps the AESR radar they’re looking at for new static and rotating radars. The bow gun could likely support upgrades and helo/small craft facilities are pretty good looking. :cool_2:

If they insisted on the hull dimensions, a DDG-51 propulsion plant could drive it to fleet speed.
