Default What you want to see in a future navy sim?

I'm such a daydreamer! Was reading a post by timmyg00 and it got me thinking... What if there was a Dangerous Waters version with future ships in it? A DW-NextGeneration if you will, lets say.... 20-30 years in the future. Here's my spill on what I would fancy to go in it"

Of course you have to include the DDX/DD21 and CGX/CG21, but would be nice to see someTrimaran Hulls in their too, with superior speed and survivability as well as taking advantage of the increased deck space for weps/UAVs/etc. What kindof systems would be put in game? The Advanced Gun System would in place on the DDX and CGX... but what maybe some more advanced gun system by then? First generation railguns? Initial Solid State Lasers? For CIWS, we could go with the good ol, Phalanx type systems.....or perhaps assume that more advanced systems like THELs systems have made their debute by then. The carriers in the game would most certainly be using Unmanned Combat Air Vehicles as regularly as the Joint Strike Fighter, that's a gimmee.

Hm.... what else...... as far as subs go, the Virginia would still be alive and kicking, and probably its successor,whatever that may be, but probably not a lot of difference in Submarine capabilities. Photonics Mast on all the new subs for sure.... can't think of anything else new that would go on the subs..... ASW Helos would probably be the same pretty much and the good'ol P3-Orion would have its successor, but the same ASW capabilites.....

.....yep that about does it. Anything I'm missing? *goes back to daydreaming about ship-bound DEW systemss*
