Howdy Y'all,
This is my first actual SB drawing that I've made. It's part of what will be my AU called the Republic of Texas (I believe that someone else has also called their AU the same, but I'm not looking at any of their drawings so as to not copy them). This ship in particular is mostly a mix of the US Zumwalt destroyers and some design considerations from the Chinese Type 55 destroyers.
