A ship 5x bigger in displacement cannot necessarily carry 5x the weapons.A Cyclone carries one Mk38 up front and a second one on top of the deckhouse aft. Dropping an extra 5 tons on the bow will do ugly things to seakeeping, more waves over the bow and breaking the CIWS, if not breaking the bridge itself. Putting that extra 5 tons up a deck will do absolutely hideous things to stability.The only time I have ever seen RHIBs on the sides of a Mk6 is when the SEALs are actively deploying. Hop off the side of the Mk6 into the RHIB that's in the water, roll into the water off the side of the RHIB. Saves the SEALs a long drop into the water.
