I'm back from my hiatus.... For now

Designed to replace the country aging force of coastal vessels, the LILLAC class Littorial patrol vessels is a much needed and important Arm in the Edelweiss coastal defence force to combat threats in the modern day.

The LILLAC are a class of 15 ships all named after flowers native to the country. Primarily Designed as a defensive vessel, it's main tasks are maritime patrol, anti piracy missions and coastal security surrounding important naval bases and seaports. Despite this, it boasts an unnaturally impressive weapon systems from it's 75mm Main gun to its ARROW medium range missiles in VLS cells and ADEN anti-ship missiles Defensive armaments include 2x typhoon 25mm chain gun mounts, and 2x 7.62mm machine guns on both sides.

The LILLAC has many new features that makes it an incredibly capable vessel for both offence and defence, it has a digital optical mount above the bridge that automatically tracks enemy targets. behind it is the main sensor mast with the majority of its antennas and sensors being hidden in its recognisable mast, it gives a cleaner, refined look to the vessel. It integrates it's navigations, Combat information center and engineering monitoring systems all on its bridge, which helps reduce crew size to 25men and improves communication. It holds 4 chaff and flares launchers behind the bridge with its main feature being a stern well deck capable of housing a single RHIB or an unmanned vessel.

Powered by 2 high speed water jets, it cruises at a comfortable 27 knots(50km/h)during peacetime but that speed can be increased to double at 54 knots(100km/h) during times of war, turning it from a patrol vessel to a large sized fast attack craft.
