Jindivick Class main gun changed from Millenium to Mk38 25mm. I think it looks more balanced. Thanks for the comments odysseus1980 and erik-t :)

I agree, that's a definite improvement.

These are superb - your eye for detail on modern warships is simply unsurpassed.

Bravo Zulu! Beautiful ships and very interesting designs!

However, I like several before me in this thread question the arming of the hospital ships.

Under international law (Hague Convention X 1907, Second Geneva Convention 1949, San Remo Manual on International Law Applicable to Armed Conflicts at Sea), a hospital ship cannot claim the protection of a protected symbol (the Red Cross) whilst still remaining armed, as it cannot be "used for any military purpose".

Further, if we to nitpick, in order to be in compliance with the rules of the Geneva Convention, Article 43 states that "All exterior surfaces shall be white. One or more dark red crosses, as large as possible, shall be painted and displayed on each side of the hull and on the horizontal surfaces, so placed as to afford the greatest possible visibility from the sea and from the air."

I'm wondering if you're planning on redoing the landing ships of the old AU. Is that in the cards or no?

Hollows Class Hospital Ship/Disaster Response Ship updated in white colour scheme and de-weaponed.

Excellent work all along, sorry for chiming in that late.
These ships are excellent realistic designs, masterfully executed with a level of detail probably beyond compare among contemporary fictional designs.
Keep up the great job, I'm really looking forward for more of these!

I have always been a fan of MConrads rendition of the Canberra Class LHD so I decided to use it as the basis of my AU's 2 strong Canberra Class LHD's.

Here is AS Canberra and AS Adelaide will soon follow.
