Folks, some SP users may look at the thumbnail and guess this build was very simple. Not so. Modified missiles are internal and the high-energy red cannon uses articlulated elevation. So, using @Fluffiboo cockpit, this is an entry into the @Fluffiboo Watercraft Challenge.

The Visby is the latest class of corvette to be adopted by the Swedish Navy. The ship's design heavily emphasizes low optical visibility, low radar cross-section and low infrared signature. The class has received widespread international attention because of its capabilities as a stealth ship.

The hull is constructed with a sandwich design consisting of a PVC core with a carbon fibre and vinyl laminate. Visby's angular design reduces its radar signature.

WEAPONS:

  1. Bofors 57mm 70 SAK mkIII general purpose gun
  2. Bofors Dynamics RBS 15 mk2 anti-ship missiles.
  3. Exocet MM38 surface-launched anti-ship missile.

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Water launch near fleets.
  2. Forward=throtttle
  3. Steer=Roll control
  4. Bofors 57mm gun = Gun control: use Pitch to elevate range. Gun will slice and destroy the USS Beast. (Range: 1 mile.)
  5. (24 missiles) RBS 15 mk2 anti-ship missiles: Infernos - Use AG = 5, 6, 7 to lanuch groups and eliminate large surface ships. (Range 4.3 miles.)
  6. (3 missiles) Exocet: Cleavers - Use Cleaver radar lock-on and missile icon release and eliminate surface targets at long range. (Range: 10 miles.)

[Note: this model is highly maneuverable on Jundroo waters and intended for close-in surface sea combat, Top speed is 125 mph.]

    OK. This post should be a successor, I downloaded your cockpit. Junfroo glitch? I added “Visby Corvette” after Watercraft Challenge. My mobile device says this is your cockpit. The SP post somehow does not link you. May be nothing, but, you cockpit was rotated 90 degrees sideways, and rotating it back to normal may have some effect.@Fluffiboo

    I was wondering whether you could re-upload this one with the challenge’s cockpit to make it a successor? If not then it is
    absolutely fine!

    I’ve got two notifications saying you created a successor to the challenge and a third one that led me here and somehow isn’t a successor 😂
