Sorry this took so long to post, I was contemplating if I should put a crane or not and also procrastinating.

Controls
Throttle+Roll [Movement of ship]
AG1+VTOL+Trim [Activation/control of RBU-6000]
AG2+VTOL+Trim [Activation/control of 150mm Guns]
AG3+VTOL+Trim [Activation/control of basically Kashtan CIWS]
AG4+VTOL+Trim [Activation/control of Torpedo]

Why a helicopter cruiser?

“Well I wanted to make a helicopter carrier but then I realised that’s not ”Halcyon” enough so I looked up some ships and boom I found the Moskva Class.”

————————————————————————
Roleplay Origins

“The Halcyon Navy, shadowed by the Halcyon Naval Air Force launches a programme to upgrade its aging fleet. The Plesiosaur-Class Helicopter Cruiser is one of the first ships to be apart of the new generation of ships in the Federal Halcyon Navy.”

Note:
Almost considered putting a seaplane on the cruiser but was scraped as I think Project —7I- is the perfect choice to have the seaplane

    Whoa! I am a huge fan of this! What an excellent looking and performing ship. The layout is very thoughtful and seems like it would make a perfect combat vessel. The trimaran hull also makes this look exceptionally cool

    And this can take how many aircraft?

    Ballin. You need to reduce the drag points and scale this entire thing up, though. It's at least 1/4th scale, probably more.

    Pros:

    Pretty good looking, and not a bad concept. Worth an upvote for sure.

    Cons:
    Stop trying to compensate with the ortho camera man, it makes the build look so weird

    Cool!
    I'd put in a list of armaments though, just for RP purposes.
