The pinnacle of Erandian Engineering.
Designed by Royal Arms Maritime Division, the Excelsior class frigate was one of the most advanced ships ever built in Erandia. While small compared to other frigates, the Excelsior is very heavily armed.
Designed by RA Maritime and built by San Silba shipyards, ERN Excelsior (FFG-96) is the first of the Excelsior class frigates.

Armaments
A small ship that can throw a punch, the Excelsior is armed with quite a large arsenal of weapons, including:
-1 MK3 Rapidfire main cannon
-1 CIWS

Sensor systems
The Excelsior's Integrated mast holds most of its weapon Systems. An integrated Type 2 ECM unit, as well as Advanced MK83 AESA radar, MK82 Phased array surface scan radar, LRCSP-3 and SCBPS-6 Processing systems reside there.
In the Hull, a CS-11 Sonar system can switch between Active and Passive sonar.
Cost: 523 Million ER
Range: 14000KM
Propulsion: CODAD system (4x Rostrum Dynamics 12 PFC Diesels with 5700 Kw output each)
Crew complement: 142
This ship can only be sold to Erandian Allies in the following Alliances:
UW
NWRP
UGN
Controls:
Throttle to go forward
Brake to move backward
Yaw to turn
AG1 to open Hangar door
Creator's note:
600+ parts! What an achievement! This took total of 4 days to make, and boy does it look good! It has the Hull of a French Aquitaine FFG, a superstructure based of that of the Arleigh-Burke, an Integrated mast ripped out of the Kolkata, and a Paint scheme based off the PLAN's. What do the people of the SP website think? Give me your opinions in the comments.

@natemomog yes.
@EternalDarkness can you make this build a sucessor to thischallenge?
The Great Experiment... without Transwarp drive.
nice
Nice
thank you for not forgetting to tag me
Very noice
Nice ship!
@MrEarth
On the VLS problem:
Its simple bcos I don't want to fry my phone. Usually, I use a flare dispenser or a car engine to simulate a VLS; This is one of the rare occasions that I use an actual opening VLS.
About the AGM:
Anti-ground missile. It was meant to be Anti ground target missle, but that is just ATGM, which is quite confusing.
good boag nonetheless :)
@HughHughTheNeutron may God bless The Erandian Teasers.
