(why no autocredit work?)

• ...And I guess I should also finally acknowledge the 15k points and almost 160 followers that I have now for some reason. Thanks random internet people. (The "special" will be when I actually get to making an original build again)

Original build here

No beehive version here

(Doesn't really make a difference since the turret only fires from 8-25km... every 40 seconds...)

Lightish version (761 parts) 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)
  Yamato was the lead ship of her class of battleships built for the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) shortly before World War II. She and her sister ship, Musashi, were the heaviest and most powerfully armed battleships ever constructed, displacing nearly 72,000 tonnes (71,000 long tons) at full load and armed with nine 46 cm (18.1 in) Type 94 main guns, which were the largest guns ever mounted on a warship.

(Hellcat)

Functional armament

(Spawn as AI in aggressive mode, guns will activate and deactivate depending on if they are in arc/range. It will start maneuvering once you get within 6.5km of it)

- 1x triple 46 cm (18.1 in) gun turret (beehive shells)
max range - 25km
min range - 8km (to balance out reload rates for other guns)
muzzle velocity - 780m/s
reload rate - 40 seconds

[Functional gun is the frontmost turret, can only activate/fire 110 degrees each side]

- 12x twin 12.7 cm/40 Type 89 naval gun turrets
max range - 8km
min range - 1km
muzzle velocity - 725m/s

[Guns fire in a barrage between 6.8km and 8km, then fire individually along with the type 96s once they get into range as well]

- 48x triple Type 96 25 mm AT/AA gun mounts
max range - 6.8km
min range - 0km
muzzle velocity - 820m/s

Notes/updates

• The big ship is finally here! The laptop makes it pretty easy to make these larger builds so more will be out... eventually.
• There's a 10 second delay before the missile locks in order to compensate for the main gun's aiming. Just think of it as the crew heading to battle stations or something.
• It'll sometimes shoot itself on spawn for some reason, just respawn it if it happens
• um

Enjoy getting obliterated!
