nice looking craft, i would like the rpyal navy to have a batch of ships kind of half way between this and the castle class. iam not liking the current trend of going for fewer and fewer larger ships to replace older designs.

The look of warships, since they design them towards radar stealth, more and more makes me wonder if they can also be used as Starcruisers.
