And now try to put the same arrangement on a "County"-class ship; which was nearly three times smaller than "Providence".Yeah, and how many missiles fit on "Gyatt"?Fourteen.Easily. The original SeaSlug magazine arrangement were supposed to look like that:[ATTACH=full]629046[/ATTACH]You seems to fail to understood, that the peculiar magazine arrangement on "County"-class was not the demand of missile design. It was the demand of ship's survivability. The "County" magazines were distributed along the ship's axis; thus they were better protected, and there weren't risk that one hit would took out all ship's missile supply.There were zero technical reasons why SeaSlug assembly could not be made more compact. It's just that on "County"-class the matters of ship survival were put ahead.
