Yes, I know this a reupload, although I think I didn't do the Atlanta justice when I first uploaded her. I have made her a litte more realistic here, with only 24 VLS tubes for anti-air missiles and an 8-cell armored box launcher for antiship cruise missiles. If you think I should take down the original one, I'll gladly do it...


She may or may not resemble ErvenDynamics' Marigold-class FFG; she just happened to turn out that way.


Controls-
AG1: Activates the main gun turret, TRIM + VTOL to aim;
AG2, AG3: Activates the 30mm Defender CIWS, TRIM + VTOL to aim;
AG4, AG5: Activates the 40mm Enforcer Advanced Defensive Autocannon Railgun Systems (ADARGS), TRIM + VTOL to aim;
AG6: Opens the forward 36 VLS hatches and activates the 24 Interceptors (these represent RIM-277s);
AG7: Activates the Armored Box Launcher and the 8 Inferno cruise missiles, use VTOL DOWN and TRIM UP or DOWN to rotate the ABL into launch position (these represent Neptune supersonic ASMs);
AG8: Activates the LaWS, TRIM + VTOL to aim;
Throttle + Roll to accelerate and steer.


Cost:
$420 million


The Atlanta-class FFG is a 130 meter-long multirole frigate equipped with advanced sensors and radar systems. It was partly inspired by Emmeria's Marigold-class FFG, and happened to resemble a sort of stealthier version of the Emmerian vessel. She is armed with a pair of 40mm Enforcer ADARGS (Advanced Defensive Autocannon Railgun System) which use capacitor shells to quickly charge the railguns; a pair of 30mm Defender CIWS (Close-In Weapon System) as well an 88mm Mark 9 autocannon in her main turret and a Phoenix ADLaWS (Advanced Defensive Laser Weapon System). She is also equipped with 24 Vertical Launching System tubes for missiles, here they have 12 Guardians and 12 Cleavers (set to air-to-air) as well as an 8-cell Mark 55 Armored Box Launcher (ABL). The ship would have a top speed of 33 knots on her CODAG (Combined Diesel and Gas) propulsion system. She was developed by Kerlonceaux Industries' International Shipbuilding Division starting in 2018, although the project did not produce a suitable design until 2024. The first functioning prototype of the ship was laid down in October 2026 and finished in November 2027. Atlanta herself was laid down in April 2028 and after countless delays and coming very close to being cancelled, was finally completed in March 2032.

    Also via simple iPad Pro I added 70 mph speed + real forward guns, and 30 antiship Inferno missiles: Ag = 5, 6, 7 recommended for missile bursts. Guns=gun icon. Fully tested -- wiped out the USS Beast missile fleet. Feel free to update this unlisted post, provided as a courtesy, since if you are going to do an FFG REFIT you might as well add small stuff (functionality) while retaining the beauty of the original build. Use as you choose. @KerlonceauxIndustries

    IPad Pro mobile 2018 model. Phone mobiles are likely to have some testing issues. @KerlonceauxIndustries

    @Stingray Thanks mate. I honestly didn't think she'd be mobile friendly.

    Q: can Kerlonceaux Industries add Jundroo weapons that allow the FFG to tackle the Jundroo USS Beast missile fleet?

    Beautiful build! Thrust and roll steering are functional. Mobile friendly!
