Certainly one of the most interesting-looking modern warships:

Now available from Trumpeter in 1/350 scale!

Nice blueprints, both posted here and on the link.

I've been considering building a digital model to complement the USS Freedom we put in to LWAMI.

Looks pretty cool!

I always liked that sort of design, but I haven't heard how the sea trials are going for that or the HMS Triton. The design makes a lot of sense, giving you so much more deck space and stability.

Remember the Sea Shadow? I think this is the first generation from lessons learned from that X-craft. It is interesting but not as sexy as a ship bristling with guns and missiles IMHO. As a modelling subject it is kinda plain-jane. But I didn't like the F-18 when it first arrived, compaired to the venerable F-4. I like it now.
