Hey Marc, the ship looks really good.  I just have a couple of nitpicky
things that might make it better.  Ignore ideas if you wish! First thing is
the desingation  a "G" in nomenclature indicates that the ship is a guided
missle carrier.  As i saw no missle armament in the ships loadout.  If you
wanna add missles, just say there is a vertical launch system forward of the
front mount.  Second is that i think you need more bodies on board.  Not
enough people to stand watch, especially in engineering with an engine that
is a nuclear reactor.  The medic would be an enlisted corpsman rather than a
medical doctor.  Finally, i have two weapon suggestions.  If you want to
"upgun" the forward mount, make it  76mm (3in).  Dual 30mm are fine also.
The other suggestion is that if you can cram a close in weapon system
somewhere.  r2-d2 was made for it!  Look at picture of any moder US ship to
see what i mean.  My nitpicky nature comes out whenever military hardware is
involved, I have a hard time at the movies!  Just my two cents!

I appreciate the feedback. You're are right -- it's definetly not "naval spec" accurate. This is in part due to the fact I was never in the navy and secondly because I failed to perform a lot of research prior to building, except look at few photo's (...)
