Description

A large cruiser built by the end of the 40s as a successor to the Des Moines class cruisers with the aim to help combat the Soviets in a Cold War turn hot scenario. A refit was planned in the 80s to help her combat enemy ships with the use of 8 anti ship missiles, and 2 Phalanx CIWS to defend the ship while the 76mm AA gun turrets was retained. However, the missile capacity did not fulfill the requirements of the US Navy and the placement of the missiles made the ship very top heavy and unstable. Instead, she was decommissioned in the 70s after her service in the Vietnam War.

for providing the screenshots. Sorry for killing your PC lmao

@BMilan

i used his codes for the turret aiming.

@Doomnolymo

i used his radar for the radar screen. But i butchered his radar screen to make them circular. (Also notice me senpai)

hello everyone. So i came up with this idea a few months back for a computerized combat system that you can control without seeing the enemy. So i quickly made a room specifically so you guys can actually control the ship purely by the available computer. However, as sad as it seems, its still not a perfect computer system, despite the imperfections, im actually quite impressed that i managed to work a lot of codes myself, there were some that i took from others especially since the original radar is made by Doomnolymo. All you had to do is select a camera that allows you to see the radar. From there you guys can figure it out yourself. I'll plan to give my missile ships from here on out a computerized station, complete with throttle, and stuff.

As for me, i have travelled out of town for college, and that means, i'll not be having a lot of time to build my ships for a while now. There is one more ship i'd like to upload but as of now no one had been able to run the ship which means, back to the drawing board.

Anyways, thank ya'll for downloading and trying out the ship, i'll see you later. Bye.
