Trivia

This build is kinda special since I built the first part of it 2 years ago and during the process, I had a lot of things going on while working on it. Firstly it was named PV6 ARES but recently I decided to rename it since the name had some bad aurora to it. I have experience dozens of health problems & 2 devastating earthquakes while working on it. The renaming idea came after I left the city after the earthquake for vacation. While on vacation I had enough time & luck to visit a MEKO 2000 frigate, a retired Knox Class Destroyer, two retired torpedo/missile boats, a retired Balao class submarine & the mighty LHD 400 Anadolu. The ship was renamed after the beautiful Ilica beach in the city of Izmir.
