HISTORY

The USS Jane S. Thach is a destroyer built and served the US Navy between 1980 and 2010 and would be the last ASW Destroyer built for the US Navy. The ship would be built from the ground up with the new Mk. 41 VLS Cells that allowed the ship to carry more missiles than her predecessors. In 2010 she would be transferred to ROCN and renamed ROCS Hengchun. In 2022, she would participate in RIMPAC 2022. In 2024, her RUR-5 ASROC launchers would be removed.

Hello everybody, so i finished a new ship. How's your CNY ? Got any Red Envelopes ? i got some, and I hope you got some. Also i got myself a new job, albeit not much, i began teaching so yeah, but its only like once a week thing so i still got time. Anyways, i hope you like this ship as much as i do. So i decided to also experiment with touchscreen-ish interface for the CIC, and also a detailed hangar space. So the reason behind the detailed hangar was that in the Port SP Discord Server, a user by the name of Unmanaged Reservoir had posted his creation into the Ship Server which is a detailed hangar space with a door. I liked the idea and put the hangar space on my ship.

Anyways, you can consider this post a celebration for CNY, in which case, Happy Chinese New Year for you guys who celebrate it. Also thank you very much for visiting, thank you very much for downloading and trying out my new post. I'll see you guys in my next post.
