The Gripsholm and the Gavle are very nice additions.

Springsharp does have its problems, especially when designing cruisers and destroyers. It will let you do things that common sense say won't work (like put 25 quad 40mm's on a destroyer), so you have to exercise caution taking the results as gospel.

And of course there's always the possibility of another "Tomozuru Incident." For those who don't know the IJN had been trying to put heavy armaments on smaller hulls. The Tomozuro was an attempt to cram half the armament of a Fubuki-class destroyer onto a hull one-third the size. Things were going well until some of the fleet hit a huge storm in 1934. Tomozuro capsized while a number of destroyers suffered heavy damage. Many ships had to be rebuilt and ballast added to reduce metacentric height, which reduced speed. It's quite possible Psilander might have to answer to the Swedish Admirality Board if Bellona suffers a similar fate.

Psilander has been doing SS designs for some time now, he's no newbie...

How about the motorkanonbåt 70. Find this ships very interesting.

Thanks, she is intented as a FAC killer with all those Osas, Nanuchkas & Tarantulls in the Baltic. Smal agile and with a powerfull and rapid punch.

An attempt with a sub. A exprimental submarine cruiser (like the X-1) from 1918. The HMUb (His Majesty's Submarine) Jona, in service 1923-1942.

Interesting work. :) Great to see more submarines in Your AU.

An unusual sub but I think the gun arrangement would work, certainly no worse that the other gun cruiser subs of that era.

More odd submarines. The Hajen II class of 1956-60 equipped with the RB08 SSM in a similar "twin bin" arrengement as the US Regulus carrying subs. She has to surface to fire the missiles. She carries four missles in her magazine.

Surfaced, with missile in firing position and one in reloading position.

Nice to have you back drawing. The cruisers are lovely. The submarines seem to be a bit "thin". Only a 6m beam at a length of 90m seem to small.. Oberon class was about 90X 8 m....

well I think he draw it like that, due to that Swedish submarines are operating in very shallow waters.
