HEADLINE: Pearlian Navy's Aurora Class Guided missile cruiser conducts live firing of it's weapons.
The Chart below is the Cruiser's systems and weapons:
SENSORS AND
PROCESSING SYSTEMS
IAI EL/M-2248 MF-STAR S-Band AESA radar (450+km range)
AN/SPY-1D(V) PESA 3D multifunction radar
OPS-28E surface search radar
AN/SPG-62 continuous wave fire-control radar
GUNS
1× Artemis 150mm Main Naval Gun
3 × Phalanx CIWS Block 1B
ANTI-SURFACE WARFARE
2 × 8-cell VLS, for 16 BrahMos anti-ship missiles
8 × 2 RGM-84 Harpoon missiles
ANTI-AIR WARFARE
- 2 × 16-cell Mk-41 VLS for SM-6 missiles
ADDITIONAL PLANS
2 × 4 VL-ASROC VLS
1 × Fixed Wing UCAV (Model is still Unknown)
The cost overall is around $1-1.5~ billion. That's why the Pearlian Navy only ordered 2 instead of the original plan which is 6 units.
@OrangeConnor2 nah that doesn't matter, this is just sp and all roleplay anyway :v
Ah good, my Gravatar updated.
@MonsNotTheMonster
You got that hilariously off.
That being said, I can see why it was cancelled. $8 billion per ship? Yikes.
@OrangeConnor2 200m, for comparison, the Zumwalt class is 190m. They got almost the same price, the difference is, Zumwalt is more expensive including the armaments
Fascinating.
Though ComradeSandman is right. That is obscenely expensive. How big is it?
@ComradeSandman that's the total cost including the armaments. It's a heavily modified cruiser with semi stealth capabilities. Combined with new gen AEGIS combat system, a ton of missiles. Without those, the ship's total cost is 19.5 billion dollars, since this is nuclear powered
$22.5 Billion?!
A GRF-class carrier costs $13 billion!

@JSTQ
BIG AHH BOAD 🔥🔥🔥🗣️🗣️🗣️
… Um... really, I don't really care, really... If you have a boat, then you have a boat. Congratulations, that's all... really, I'm not in a hurry, really… ꒦ິ^꒦ິ
Why have all of you released new ships? I'm the only one who hasn't even gathered anti-ship missiles. I'm so sour, I also want a warship… ˚‧º·(˚ ˃̣̣̥᷄⌓˂̣̣̥᷅ )‧º·˚
Sooner or later, I will blast all of you who have warships into the sky!。゜゜(´Ｏ`) ゜゜。
