( sorry for no picture haven't got it fully thought out yet and also horrible at drawing) As the title suggests the idea is for an escort carrier with modern-day combat in mind it would be purely for short-range defense and Recon it's air Fleet would consist mostly of Recon and attack drones but would all so have six helicopters for anti-submarine Warfare rescue operations and radar buoys. don't think it eould be able to carry any Jets due to its small size but I don't think this would be a problem as it's meant for defensive operations not offensive and given the fact most of its air fleet is made up of drones and the general smaller size I believe it would be effective and cheap.

So I have been writing Azur Lane fanfic for a while now, two of them actually, one is called "Tenkai Hunter" which is currently on Wattpad, another one gonna be call "ACTIONS STATION" which revolves around Azur Lane universe, TH is set in Alternate WW2 ehile AS gonna be set in future.

I know quite a lot about warship but I think I could do better, so if you have some knowledge or personal interest, you can suggest some warship design that have potential but was cancelled, , unfinished, or never built.

Yes this includes ship from Plan Z, 8-8 fleet, snd ship like Montana or Kremlin too, which I already put in but I believe there is more warship I could bring to live in either one of my Azur Lane fanfic.

The CK series of Shamalian patrol craft was a non-standardised design, ships of the series were fitted and shapen according to the most likely threat of the time. CK-4 was created at a time when motor torpedo boat squadrons were in style - about 20 years before it would see any real use - and thus features two 3 inch naval guns to fend them off, as well as two single 20mm mounts for general use. CK-4 would sink a few months into the war with Marelen in a skirmish against more modern Mareleni torpedo boats.

Unit Run; HMCS Yukon (1996) HMCS Northwest Territories (1997) HMCS Turks and Caicos (1998) HMCS Nunavut (1999)

Couldn’t find any other

A somewhat experimental design, as Marelen tended to use, seven ships of the class were made. They carried three 5” main guns, and two 40mm dual mounts. Later iterations would have multiple 20mm mounts, most being placed on the bow. During the war against Shamalia, these destroyers would be invaluable for their high speed and high torpedo load - only six tubes, but many torpedoes could be carried to reload, which was more than could be said for most destroyers at the time.

The General Lockwoods is a modified version of the British G3 design using heavy missiles in position of the aft turret, along with a large number of antiaircraft missiles and CIWS

(also give criticism on the first one lol)

The original one has 3 guns, should I still use 3 gun?

So I just joined this place because I have a bit of a joy of Designing warships are there any sources that aren't allowed on here aside from AI like certain games or others that aren't allowed or any limits on sharing pre-made work like YouTube videos or such?
