Can I give you my take on a Falkland Island guard ship (or ships) using a rebuilt type 41 (as a FI OPV with stuff mainly from a type 21). Still has Sea Wolf / Exocet / 4.5 + much cheaper and newer hull - slow, no towed array, no hangar only a pad. Overall not as useful as your ship but will still be sufficient to guard a fixed point near a friendly base such as the Falkland islands. PS I like your RAN Storm Grey paint job, JSB Edited for new credits |

Err Well I started with Bombhead's Lynx, then added stuff from Oberon_706's ship, I used your type 22 masts (I thought this might be considered more than just a part so included you in the credits, I then swapped them for type 21 ones by you and Mihoshik, I decided to cut costs by staying closer to the type 41's old ones, I got and forgot to remove you from them sorry will remove you (I think I'm just using parts now apart from Bombheads hull now ?).

interesting to use an AA frigate (type 41) as an multirole ship focused on ASuW |

oh when drawing a ship with no hangar, then the helicopter should be hovering. |

Code: Select all interesting to use an AA frigate (type 41) as an multirole ship focused on ASuW You could use a 12/12m/12L but this would be faster and more expensive to operate or a 81 but they where designed for calm waters or a 14 but they are very small. (but 2/3 would still be sufficient to deter the Argentinians and very cheap) 2) I was thinking it was balanced with ASuW (Exocet/4.5 ) AA(Sea Wolf) ASW(still has Limbo under the pad, I could swap for a set of torpedo's, Mk 32 SVTT ? and land based Helicopters working with it). Code: Select all with no hangar, then the helicopter should be hovering. JSB |

Hahaha...well, JSB, I'm flattered, but any such parts are free to use - heck, use it but modify it according to your needs! - That way you'll "own" it! |

How big a part can you use before you should credit ? Just interested I get that using a turret is ok but would you credit for using a masts or bridge structure ? or a hull ? Thanks JSB Sorry for possibly derailing this thread, I have asked a q about this in GD. |

An entire hull, or, say 75% use of such, yes, that should be credited. I cannot say, however, for sure, how large (or small) a portion of a hull that would be the breaking point for not adding credits. But, as always, if you're unsure, better err on the safe side! It wasn't like I was offended being included in the credits, right!? |
