Whirlwind Class Destroyer

Read Entire Description for Controls
The Whirlwind-class destroyers are a class of fictional destroyers built between 1935 and 1940. They featured heavy armament for destroyers, having six 12.7cmMain Battery Cannons mounted in three turrets: one forward and two aft. It featured a moderate torpedo arsenal, having six torpedoes spread across two centrally mounted torpedo tubes. It is very maneuverable, hitting a top speed around 70 mph, and having decent turn capability. Unfortunately, like one of the real destroyers it was modeled after (I took inspiration from three different destroyers), it suffers from being a little top heavy thanks to the enclosed bridge. Lots of tiny modded parts were used for this, and it was a very hard build. All those tiny railings were a pain to place properly.

How to controll:
Throttle to go forward.
Yaw to steer.
Ag1 and VTOL to turn turrets.
AG2 and VTOL to turn torpedo tubes.
To spin radar, Activate AG8, move VTOL in any direction, Deactivate AG8, and return VTOL to normal. Will spin forever thanks to a rotator provided by @bajc0.

This thing took me a few days total to make, so I hope you guys like it! It's my first watercraft/boat, so please do give me feedback. By far the largest creation I've ever made, and it even lags out my iPad.

    My kindle fire can handle an MC-80B Liberty type Star Cruiser so this thing will run just fine for me (try using the fuselage blocks and edit them for a ship hull) really helps and cuts part count down.

    @Blazeinfinity what like you? If it's about scavenging for parts, I allow that to all ship makers that seem to be able to put them into good use.

    Regarding the limits of ios, this is a beautiful ship. Maby just try to make it a bit more colorful. Not too much, but different shades of gray, maby dull red for bottom of the hull... If you find yourself in a need for xml edited ship parts, feel free to scavenge from my ships.
