U.S.S. Cape Cod FSG-6

The U.S.S. Cape Cod is a future US Navy corvette derived from the need for a patrol craft and general purpose ship to combat any potential adversary. The ship uses a “tumblehome” hull, allowing it to reach speeds up to 38 knots, enough to counter small boats, seek and destroy submarines and keep up with surface action groups. This is achieved by a sleek hull and advanced pump-jet propulsion. Advanced radar allows the ship to sere independently and search for its own targets, but works best in a group or in lower intensity situations, as it was designed to do. 
This ship is a small but mighty ship, with versatility and speed as its strong point, emphasising its goal: rapid deployment and patrol of contested waters. I spent lots of time on this ship, including doodling in calculus, to perfect its look, and I think it’s a sleek, intimidating ship that doesn’t take no for an answer. Enjoy!

    @TMach5 I had a feeling that it was that, but I’ve had that turned off and had no issues with missiles before. I’ll have to remember that for future ships, thanks!

    @Geebers I fixed my copy, thanks. I added the disable collision feature in the XML file and that fixed it. It’s an awesome boat

    @TMach5 hmm... I tested it right before I put it up and it worked. Was it a one-off or a repeated thing?
