GUILLEN CLASS BATTLESHIP
Mod 2 version
click to see full size pic (http://img69.exs.cx/img69/5874/BBGNII.jpg)
OVERVIEW: This is IDF's 1st super battleship. It is primarily designed for roles in bombardment of ground targets. It is the 1st IDF trimarian hulled ship to be commissioned for combat, 1st ship with guns more than 20 inches, and 1st to have electro thermal naval rail-guns. It has a good sized hangar that has quad elevators in it leading to a hangar deck with helos and VTOL fighters. It can fight other superbattleships and crush opposition on the ground. THis is a cheaper version of the Doujin. It is slightly less capable, it does lack ASW capabilities, but that is because Battleships aren't meant for it and that is why you have escorts, that's because at IDF shipyards we provide what you need, not the pricey extras that line our pockets like Doujin does.
main stats
length: 2,756 feet
max beam: 212 feet on main hull, total with trimarian hull is 512 feet
draught: 82 feet

Survivability is improved with the major components are in the main hull and protected by the secondary hulls and at least 45 feet away from a contact area on the main hull, but the secondary hull must be taken out 1st to get there. There are layers of armor provided by the 3 hulls. This ship can take a pounding and live. The crew quarters and storage areas (minus magazines) are more exposed in the secondary hulls along with other less important parts.
AIRCRAFT
4 elevators under deck hangar structure lead to spacious hangar deck where 52 helos or VTOL planes such as harriers or F-35C JSFs are stored.
PRICE = $120 BILLION
build time is 14 NS years. We have set up over 100 slips over the last 3 decades while this ship was being designed (check in my main IDF shipyard thread to see the expansion notes made in early June). They are build on the Sinai Penninsula yards (there is one in the NOrth on the Med and a Southern one on the Red Sea). This ship will be the life of the IDF economy as they are sold.
NETANYAHU class light dreadnought
http://img62.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img62&image=LDN1.jpg
OVERVIEW: With the impracticality of the 30"ers becoming apparent Naval engineers designed a new heavy battleship that is more usable and able to be built in larger numbers. That is where the Netanyahu class comes in. With 15 24" guns it packs a wallop and is the ultimate ship in bombarding shores or other navies. It has heavy armor and would be called a dreadnought in many world navies.

BATTLESHIPS
Arizona Class BBG
builders: IDF Shipyard's new Haifa large build yard
Overview: A modern, heavily armed and armored guided missile Battleship for the 21st century. This ship's missions are escort of carriers, shore bombardment, command, missile platform, ship to ship combat, and coastal defense.
The ship is large, but has a smaller RCS (Radar Cross Section) than most destroyers and frigates due to a composite covering the steel armor plates. In addition to this, the superstructure is shaped to avoid radar detection.

Ticonderoga II CG
USA
OVERVIEW: These AEGIS cruisers are built to last 40 years (life can be extended beyond that). They are great for air defense and work in carrier groups and that was their reason for being developed. This upgraded version of the Ticonderoga has VLS systems like ships CG-52 and onward with updated AEGIS systems to enhance her capabilities. The addition of TLAMs makes this a valuable asset in land attacks and ship to ship warfare. This version has the RAM defense system to better protect her in missile strikes and avoid the damage that occurs when the CIWS hit incoming missiles too close to the ship.

GUILLEN CLASS BATTLESHIP
Mod 2 version
click to see full size pic (http://img69.exs.cx/img69/5874/BBGNII.jpg)
OVERVIEW: This is IDF's 1st super battleship. It is primarily designed for roles in bombardment of ground targets. It is the 1st IDF trimarian hulled ship to be commissioned for combat, 1st ship with guns more than 20 inches, and 1st to have electro thermal naval rail-guns. It has a good sized hangar that has quad elevators in it leading to a hangar deck with helos and VTOL fighters. It can fight other superbattleships and crush opposition on the ground. THis is a cheaper version of the Doujin. It is slightly less capable, it does lack ASW capabilities, but that is because Battleships aren't meant for it and that is why you have escorts, that's because at IDF shipyards we provide what you need, not the pricey extras that line our pockets like Doujin does.
main stats
length: 2,756 feet
max beam: 212 feet on main hull, total with trimarian hull is 512 feet

Survivability is improved with the major components are in the main hull and protected by the secondary hulls and at least 45 feet away from a contact area on the main hull, but the secondary hull must be taken out 1st to get there. There are layers of armor provided by the 3 hulls. This ship can take a pounding and live. The crew quarters and storage areas (minus magazines) are more exposed in the secondary hulls along with other less important parts.
AIRCRAFT
4 elevators under deck hangar structure lead to spacious hangar deck where 52 helos or VTOL planes such as harriers or F-35C JSFs are stored.
PRICE = $120 BILLION
build time is 14 NS years. We have set up over 100 slips over the last 3 decades while this ship was being designed (check in my main IDF shipyard thread to see the expansion notes made in early June). They are build on the Sinai Penninsula yards (there is one in the NOrth on the Med and a Southern one on the Red Sea). This ship will be the life of the IDF economy as they are sold.
NETANYAHU class light dreadnought
http://img62.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img62&image=LDN1.jpg
OVERVIEW: With the impracticality of the 30"ers becoming apparent Naval engineers designed a new heavy battleship that is more usable and able to be built in larger numbers. That is where the Netanyahu class comes in. With 15 24" guns it packs a wallop and is the ultimate ship in bombarding shores or other navies. It has heavy armor and would be called a dreadnought in many world navies.

builders: IDF Shipyard's new Haifa large build yard
Overview: A modern, heavily armed and armored guided missile Battleship for the 21st century. This ship's missions are escort of carriers, shore bombardment, command, missile platform, ship to ship combat, and coastal defense.
The ship is large, but has a smaller RCS (Radar Cross Section) than most destroyers and frigates due to a composite covering the steel armor plates. In addition to this, the superstructure is shaped to avoid radar detection.

Kirov CGN
(Russia)
Nuclear powered battlecruiser
OVERVIEW: This is possibly the toughest ship of our time. The only ship that can be considered a battlecruiser and is in commission. The SSM's on this ship like the Shipwreck live up to their name. They are very fast and fly on a low trajectory allowing them to easily kill AEGIS ships and their protectees. The missiles have larger warheads than their slower American counterparts.

Ticonderoga II CG
USA
OVERVIEW: These AEGIS cruisers are built to last 40 years (life can be extended beyond that). They are great for air defense and work in carrier groups and that was their reason for being developed. This upgraded version of the Ticonderoga has VLS systems like ships CG-52 and onward with updated AEGIS systems to enhance her capabilities. The addition of TLAMs makes this a valuable asset in land attacks and ship to ship warfare. This version has the RAM defense system to better protect her in missile strikes and avoid the damage that occurs when the CIWS hit incoming missiles too close to the ship.
