Voracious-Class Missile Corvette

The Voracious-Class is a series of missile corvettes for the RNVN. They’re the first ships within the RNVN to utilize the RM Joint-Strike Radar, waterjets for primary propulsion, and a semi-stealth design. The main roles of Voracious-Class vessels are littoral combat and coastal defense with their heavy armament of 2 x 127mm rapid guns 36 x VLS cells that can be loaded with SGM and SAM missiles, with this particular vessel carrying 24 x Cleaver missiles for anti-ship combat and 12 x SAM-112 “Red Stripe” missiles for long-range air interception. The 127mm guns on the Voracious-Class are dual purposed with a maximum elevation of 85 degrees and can fire 84 rounds per minute. With their water jets, the Voracious-Class can maneuver tightly and has good acceleration and braking speed. The flight deck is big enough to operate Hunter and Hummingbird light, coaxial helicopters however the standard Super Kestrels of the RNVN cannot operate on the smaller flight deck. Their lack of small arms and CIWS do affect their close-range combat with fast enemy aircraft and thus they utilize their powerful jammers to deal with close in threats. 13 Voracious-Class ships are in service with the RNVN and all served as coastal defense ships during the Second Continental War.

Here’s my take on a proper modern warship. And all I can say, I rushed it a bit. Could use more details but my shipbuilding instincts tells me to stop building ships with more than two thousand parts, so this is fairly small. Operating the ship itself is pretty easy and I had fun building the turrets to be used either with the usual VTOL/TRIM and the Roll/Pitch so you guys can choose whichever setting you want. Sorry for the lack of detail on the VLS launchers and the reason why I rushed it a bit is because I’ve had the hull for months, maybe a few months before I started building the Robinette-Class and I just wanted to finish this. Next ship is a an absolute unit be advised, enjoy.
Thanks to CarnationRed for their mod
