    Albany-class Aegis refit

    Yes, yes, I fully understood that it's impractical and unrealistic, but I just like "Albany"-class cruisers, and just before New Year I hit the idea "what if Albany-class cruiser would be refitted in 80s to carry Aegis?" Oh, and a Happy New Year) So yes, it's CG-18 "Fall River" missile...
