Fantasque-class Guided Missile Cruiser
A full description will come eventually. The activator groups are kinda all over the place, which is a result of how I set up my weapons subassemblies. She can do about 33 knots ingame, her max speed IRL would be 37 knots on her high-speed turbines. She utilizes COGGODL (Combined Gas, Gas, or Diesel-Electric) propulsion. She has two pairs of gas turbines, one pair consists of the smaller cruise turbines and the other consists of the much larger high-speed turbines. She also has a pair of electric motors supplied by a set of 4 to 6 diesel generators depending on how power is being distributed. She carries up to 16 XM-258 Ballista supersonic cruise missiles in her angled launch tubes and 96 SAMs in the VLS cells. She has two Mk.5 Twin 127mm/70 Caliber Gun Systems, 7 30mm 6-Barreled Rotary Centurion CIWS, and a C1A2 Arsenal Block II. A typical loadout for the VLS cells would consist of 96 RIM-277 missiles.
A single Fantasque will cost around 2 billion to build.

@yoshicraze That's fine.
@KerlonceauxIndustries The name for the class in basically the Canadian from of 'Fantastic'
@KerlonceauxIndustries Cool!
@ThomasRoderick Aye, the high speed is a reference to her amazing WWII namesake. And yeah, Slava has only 1 gun turret while mine has two. The 127mm guns would function as dual-purpose guns capable of acting as flak.
A Russian Slava-class missile cruiser, only with two gun turrets instead of one? Also, is her speed (37kn would be faster than pretty much all modern ships in and above destroyer size, and most, if not all ships faster than 35kn are corvettes and missile boats) a homage to her WWII namesake?
Many thanks for the spotlight @RailfanEthan
