I cannot believe you as an active duty Gunners mate would design such an abortion.
You cant fire the weapons and conduct flight operations simulaniously for one unless your willing to shoot down your own flyers!
Weapons outboard, flight deck along the centerline!
Fer gosh sakes BA, I was a Sonar Tech and even I knew better than that!
Speaking along those lines, though... With a pair of VLS cells per outer hull, you dont need Torp Tubes AS MUCH. ASROC is VLS compatible after all. A standard 3 tube waterline launcher on each outboard hull should be sufficent for anything that actually makes it past the airborne and ASROC ranges
Hear that thunder rolling till it seems to split the sky?
That's every ship in Grayson's Navy taking up the cry-
NO QUARTER!!!
