New materials & models

[steel shark]

yes im at the moment mixing and matching up models & parts to make new royal navy ships


as like you said not much love has been given to (Royal Navy) assets so im addressing that as well as other nations


im fairly confident that by using a


Iver Huitfeldt class - (Royal Danish Navy)

&

type 45 & type 23 class (Royal Navy) models i can make



type 31E & type 26 (Royal Navy) models


then various other parts from loads of models to finish em off

see Pic.1) mix & match


ive also made both new Royal navy carriers :

HMS Queen Elizabeth (R08

&

HMS Prince of Wales (R09)


these have defensive anti-Air guns & missiles


and AW159 Wildcat,s for the Air-drop torpedo,s


and ive armed my British f35b,s on the carriers with


with Meteor & spear missiles


spear is anti-ship


meteor is anti air long range


BAE Systems has received an initial funding award from Lockheed Martin, the prime contractor on the F-35 programme, to start integration efforts for MBDA’s Meteor beyond visual range air-to-air missile and SPEAR precision surface attack missile.

Under this initial package of work BAE Systems and Lockheed Martin will also complete further integration work with MBDA on ASRAAM and with Raytheon on Paveway® IV, initially integrated in support of delivering Initial Operating Capability for the UK.


to that end ive been amassing missiles modes to use


see Pic.2) new air craft weapons models


(Submarines are also being reworked on all nations were needed)

Certainly an ambitious project! The quality on a couple of those could really use some work though.

first off i did say in large YELLOW words on the #2 post


"REMEMBER THESE are not the final models in some cases as im just bothered at the moment get em working then make em look better"


by that i mean its more important to me to get the new models in the game and add the new sensors & weapons to em


to get em working right


its Far more important to get em all working First then make em look better


once they all fully functional


better cosmetics & appearance can come after


with all models ive got now and the ones ive made & the original coldwaters assets


that wont be a problem just a matter of time & effort



if i change the model entirely that just means a re do of the


1.) waterline


2.) MeshHullCollider


3.) MeshSuperstructureCollider


4.) move certain weapon emplacements maybe (CIWS) & navy guns or torpedo tubes & spawn positions also missile spawn positions


but all this is secondary to the new platforms being usable in the game

&

more importantly that they are in the game in the first place


this approach will be the most expedient especially since my time at the moment its at a premium



"si aliquid valet ejus facere, dignum facere ius"


(if something is worth doing its worth doing right)


mind my rusty latin is its wrong

Got to say i'm really excited about these additional ships, if you need anyone to do some testing for these platforms i'm happy to volunteer my services.


As a former skimmer and submariner in the Royal Navy this will be the icing on the cake in my opinion.

thank you

yes its all ways better to get as much input as possible on these projects

so thank you

when its more developed ill keep you in mind

i was testing the new missiles on the British F35b Fighters against ships

i am currently using a harpoon Anti-Ship Missile model at the moment for flight tests

but have now decided to get it far closer in general design as with models i can now


so ive adapted one to the design pic its not 100% but far better then the Harpoon model i was using

Isn't the meteor an air-to-air missile?

Love the project and good luck!
