Very nice (obviously). Watching the evolution of the ultimate US battleship class in this style has been very gratifying, even if it's taken us several WW2s worth of time to get here :) One minor quibble: I'd change the Mk 51 director glass to the more subdued blue, and change the MWB's propeller to...

I don't know what was the original proposal, but the main search radar in the CGI image looks an awful lot like a TRS-4D, not the SMART-S which you've used.

I'm not sure how operationally suitable such a conversion would be, but it would certainly be a cheap and cheerful short-term platform for training and doctrine development while a larger, more expensive conversion or new-build was at the docks. And as someone whose megalomania prevents me from exec...

Especially within the context of the beginner section, it would be helpful to know what you've changed. For example, the LHA-8 drawing is pretty busy. What comments should we be giving you, and what comments should we be giving the original author?

It is remarkable how abrasive some people can be. Maybe ban all of the obnoxious smileys and force everyone to communicate like an adult (or see if they're able).
