This is my entry for this challenge: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/h6AuO2/20-UPVOTE-REWARD-Modern-Destroyer-Cruiser-Challenge

This is a weapons upgrade to the Resolute-class. Though smaller than destroyers, these ships are designed to operate in large battlegroups and overwhelm the enemy with numbers. They specialize in anti ground/ship warfare, but the vessel posted has a mixed anti air/surface loadout for playability and the contest. Featured in the Flight II upgrade is a new, better looking 30mm CIWS system, the main 127mm guns are now CF guns, added torpedos, improved stability, and a new CIWS missile system.

HISTORY: Flight I of the Resolute class was chosen to test new weapons. When the new systems proved successful, the decision was made to combine all the upgraded weapons for a new production design of the Resolute class.

How to use:
AG1: Twin 127mm MARK 3 mount
AG2: Quad 30mm CIWS
AG3: Single 57mm Mount
AG5: Port Torpedo Launcher
AG6: Starboard Torpedo Launcher
AG7+AG8: Short Range AA Missile CIWS system

Use yaw to steer. Pitch and roll to move guns and radar. Go into cockpit view to target enemies. VTOL slider to move torp launchers
