What's that little thing just aft of the stern windlass?
It looks a little like some kind of paravane installation, but that can't be right.

Interesting variation on the Type 42 . One very small thing; the Wasp looks wrong; I think its taken from the deck landed version and still has some of the railing attached.

Nice work Novice.

One small point, that Sea Dart laucnher is not only hideous but wrong. The smaller launcher I've drawn for our AU is the correct Sea Dart launcher used aboard the Type 42. I think Bristol had a different type of launcher, it shares the same top part but with a different, taller base. Some re-work is needed on the launcher. Friedman has some good views of Bristol's launcher.

No real major air search set on the Sea Dart variant? That seems implausible.

THX Hood for the correction. It will be updated soon.

That is how she was designed, the long air search was to be done by carrier borne aircraft, and/or the carrier itself. These ships were meant to be part of a carrier escort group, and so they did not even have ASW weapons, the ASW element was done by the Type 17 destroyers. At that time the RN was placing a good deal of faith in TIDE (a fleet data-link), all ships sharing their targets and enabling the best ship placed to engage any given target to do so.
