Auto Credit Based on Blyatnov's USS Fletcher
(UPDATE - fixed mid turret not being able to aim left for some reason)
Welcome to defensive warships!
- Defensive warships have been something I’ve experimented with for a while now in the form of my “literal hell” series that I never released. (“LHI” stands for Literal Hell: Improved) Only now have I been able to improve on them due to making the more advanced FT wise defensive bombers, and they’ve turned out way better than before.
Original build here
”Escort” version (multiple spawnable at once) here
- The Defensive warships series hopes to make killing AI warship targets with aircraft 10x harder. (and fun) All ships have a semi-realistic AA complement, with guns that all have semi-realistic ranges, muzzle velocities, firing arcs, and etc.
- (wiki)
The Fletcher class was a class of destroyers built by the United States during World War II. The class was designed in 1939, as a result of dissatisfaction with the earlier destroyer leader types of the Porter and Somers classes. Some went on to serve during the Korean War and into the Vietnam War.
Functional armament
(Spawn as AI in aggressive mode, guns will activate and deactivate depending on if they are in arc)
(Oh boy…)
- 5x (127 mm)/38 caliber Dual-purpose guns (single)
Max range: 16000m
Min range: 1000m
Projectile velocity: 792m/s
- 3x Twin Bofors 40mm mount
Max range: 7160m
Min range: 0m
Projectile velocity: 850m/s
- 2x Quad Bofors 40mm mount
Max range: 7160m
Min range: 0m
Projectile velocity: 850m/s
- 7x Oerlikon 20mm cannon (single)
Max range: 6000m
Min range: 0m
Projectile velocity: 600m/s
Notes
- I’m pretty happy with how well this works, the FT process was not fun…
- Since this is a new series, please let me know if there’s anything I can do to improve on it, or give suggestions on warships to modify. (I’m half-willing to make my own ships from scratch for this)
- Also, if you want to be tagged for all warships, let me know
Enjoy getting obliterated!

Great work
@BMilan sure
I'd like to ask for the same permission as Ayanon. I'm not certain if I'd make any public builds with it, but I'd definitely like to build a few ships using these codes for personal use or maybe for teaser videos, is that okay? I'd give credit to you on any public post of course
@Ayanon go ahead
I'm in awe, and if you would be as kind as to give me persmission, I would like to use the codes on this ship for my future builds and give you proper credit.
@TemporaryReplacement It does, can't wait to start tomorrow
@TheUltimatePlaneLover tank to tank combat sounds really cool
@TemporaryReplacement I'm excited to see a Defensive Tank too, especially once we have swarm versions so we can have AA tanks, death bombers, and monster warships attacking at once (RiP in advance PEA P-51, he picked on one too many Defensive Bombers).
Also, since the Skink is an AA tank, I'll probably make a Centurion, Patton and MAYBE some sort of Soviet tank (preferably an IS-3) too so we can also have conventional tank-to-tank combat
@TheUltimatePlaneLover that’s good to hear, I’m excited to experiment around with ground vehicles! (Somehow make them move around, a possible reload system, etc.)
I have arrived (tag on all Defensive Series please :)
The Trio is almost complete! Defensive Bombers, Defensive Warships, now all we need are (optional) Defensive Fighters and Defensive Tanks.
Good news is, although I have yet to post each of them, I've finished all the PEAs on my immediate list! (not the whole list, just the immediate one ending with the Buccaneer) That means I'm free to FINALLY start making a Skink AA Tank to complete the triad!
Issue being it'll be a while for release ;-; Tomorrow is A6M, Wednesday is G8N, Thursday is B-29, Friday is Tu-4, and Saturday is Buccaneer, but once that's done we'll finally have a Skink!
@ShiroNeko I don’t mind
@TemporaryReplacement, Hopefully you don't mind me using the code used in this build for other creations. If I were to decide to upload, I will credit you.
@ShiroNeko glad to hear that :)
@TemporaryReplacement. Something like this is rare, quite possibly non-existent in the site. As someone who likes to build ships rather than other else, this is quite a treat as the code for the anti-aircraft can also be used for surface combat with a bit of tweaks.
@ShiroNeko I don’t know what I did exactly, but you’re welcome!
Thank you.
@LunarEclipseSP The Chadder AI WWII destroyer with a better AA armament
WWII Destroyer: Who are you?
This: I am literally you.
@TemporaryReplacement too bad you were close anyways
(you are welcome :D)
@SuperSuperTheSylph NUUUUUUUU
Then I’ll actually have to put work into something with a 10k special :(
(Thank you!)
watch me bring you to 10k :)
@DatFiat126Guy19 that was fast…
Daaaaamn
