Awesome picture stealing sk1llz. Why don't you try drawing one yourself? In fact, why not even try to design one instead of paste-whoring from fas. It's because of people like you stealing their bandwidth that fas turned into shit. Thanks for nothing.

The Corporation would like to license the rights to the Liberty-class design, seeing as how it seems to meet our needs well.

What needs, it uses Harpoon and Asroc, while it may be cheap it would take at least five of these things to bring down any decent NS destroyer. A Type 442 (http://s10.invisionfree.com/RNS/index.php?showtopic=2) would shit on these and then send them back with a message saying "waste of money".

Invest in DECENT naval projects, today!

It was bulit in 1957, the Republic Navy has better ships. This is to sell them to poor nations for defense.

Better ships you've designed, or better ships you've ripped from fas.org. There's a very big difference between the two.

You dont have to do lineart for your ships. Isselmere Neiland and Sarzonia dont, and they're considered the best in the ship building business.

it's not bad really. When you do finer detail, zoom in and use the line tool cos it looks neater.
