Well, that and some onboard AA capability. Given this class's likely potential to outrun its own escorts (twenty knots is desirable even if thirty-plus isn't worth it), it needs to be able to defend itself, not just rely on smaller platforms for AA support.

Basically people are just having fun batting around the Ace Combat jokes that started with someone suggesting as a "Commonwealth Navy" option the set of absurd flying command cruisers used by the antagonist nation in one of the Ace Combat games.
Strictly speaking you can reach 3/5 just with training, and it's the standard for front line forces of major nations like the EU or Russia. It just requires more infrastructure and institutional expertise than we really have access to.
Frankly, more bullshit-tier.
The other advantage is that decisively ending the last scraps of the caampaign makes it easier to claim the war is over, for purposes of ending our war mobilization (which is costing us 1 AP/turn) and the embargo (3 AP/turn).
Because Ace Combat super weapons "Happen to just be like that."
Is that going to take nearly that long? The option says "weeks of bombardment", and we have half-year turns, so I don't imagine it'll require us to prolong mobilization that long.
Can we even have a critical failure, at this point? Even if we roll 1 and they roll 3, it'll probably go reasonably well
One more problem:
Indeed, according to the many documentaries of the "Warhammer 40k" series, we only need that sufficient people believe the radar will work strongly enough, and it will work!Fools! That's why moral will always be superior to equipment - one only needs faith in the LORD for it to be limitless!
Nah that's just orks.
It kinda-sorta works for all sapients in the universe really (power of faith is strong, and that's in particular how Imperial Saints exist, or how Sisters of Battle can manage their miracles), it's just that for Orks this collective effect is the most reliable and strong, able to warp reality all the time wherever Orks are present (a lot of Ork tech works better than it has any right to, or even works in general where it outright should not), rather only sometimes in some places with the most devout or where faith is most concentrated.Nah that's just orks.
Even aside from the sheer fact of having had a war, yes. This was an unusually destructive conflict for the region's economy.
I mean, bear in mind that Victoria does not exactly use AP shells on these. That said, if you think it's outright impossible, just submit a design without the armor requested. If you are right, that will not penalize you relative to others.
Not for this one.
In this case, the Commonwealth is in the supremely odd industrial situation of being more capable of manufacturing SAMs with their own power supplies — think mobile SAMs that just happen to be sitting on the deck, for what this would look like — than they are of expanding oil production to supply more than one new class of warship, particularly for a warship class meant to escort river boats which realistically are hitting mothballs the second you expand oil production significantly. The Commonwealth can repurpose SAM units; it has a more difficult time retasking single-purpose and increasingly outmoded warships.
