Hey cool! I like the cockpit/bridge. Looks like a design that could fit on
almost any ship. One gripe tho, if it's a destroyer, where's the big guns?
:-P Looks more like a cruiser or something to me...

First and largest, my personal largest ever, is a runt compared to most of
you people's achievments.  The Armageddon Class Destroyer.

Some notes to Mark S.(and whoever else wants to read them.):

-The Arctic windscreens in front are attached.  If you remember, I posted a
corvette that I'd done in MLCad a while ago and I'd forgot to attach them,
you caught it:)

-I built this a couple months ago and only now realize that the nav lights
are on the wrong side, you caught me when I did it with my last MOC, so I'm
just giving you fair warning.  This type of thing seems to get you;)

Okay, the details.
The Armageddon is a relatively new ship but has already been refitted with
Telescope Laser Cannons mounted broadside.  This was done after the
effective use of broadside weapons by the GA Squadron 826(Kenneth Tam) was
demonstrated.

Vital sensors were mounted in the center of the forward hull for protection.

6 bunks have the ability to 'flip up' revealing a personal storage area.

There's more but I'm lazy and can't remember everything:)

(...) I thought wet navy cruisers were bigger than destroyers and hence had bigger guns. Perhaps you're thinking of a corvette? Those are smaller than destroyers IIRC. (patrol boat, corvette, destroyer, frigate, cruiser, battleship, dreadnought ??) (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.space)

Well, you see, man, those two strange looking things that are peeping out the holes in the side, on either side near the rear? Those are Telescope Laser Cannons, the idea came from the Exploriens theme, but I've developed it further. They are kinda (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.space)
