JS Kumano FFM-2 Frigate

JS Kumano FFM-2
30DX Frigate

A frigate under construction right now as a future stealth frigate of the JMSDF. The JS Kumano is the first launched but second laid down ship of this class and is set to be commissioned in 2022. It's highly automated and will operate with a relatively small crew.

I made this to have a proper matching escort for my Carrier Kaga. You can find that in my workshop as well.

Features -
Mark 45 Gun: 120mm Rapid firing high powered railgun.
16 Mk 41 VLS: Bow missles, multi purpose, highly destructive.
SeaRAM: Anti-air small missiles.
2 Type 03 Sam-4: 4 Missiles each, 2 Launchers.
2 Remote Weapons Systems: Set for defense, firing at incoming projectiles.
5x2 Type 97 Torpedo: Side firing anti-sub and ship torpedoes.
Decoy launchers: Sonar, Flare and Radar decoy targets.
Ring Shields, Powerful ECM and Chaff Launchers.
Extremely manuverable, high water speed max of about 50 m/s!
SH-60L Anti-Submarine Helicopter
Interior decoration and walkable ship.

The ship will raise out of the water a bit once it gets moving and will really manuver fast and travel at high water speed. It can be raised higher and faster by adjusting the propellors under the ship but I prefer the depth it travels at now. Warning, do not reverse at high speed! It'll drag the ship under. It's got medium armor thickness enhanced by the ring shields.
The Helo has some repair capabilities but is focused on standing off about 2k distance from it's target and firing it's torpedoes. Out of combat it'll follow the Frigate. It flies entirely with AI, no ACBs. It'll auto dock when damaged and undock when repaired as well as take off when an enemy is detected and return after the battle. There are manual over-rides to the docking as well.
When you manually launch or recover the Helo it'll turn off the auto launch ACBs. If you want to re-enable them just press 7 and it'll work to auto launch the helo in combat and auto dock after. This is most helpful if you're using the ship in your fleet, but not as a flagship as it'll work better automated alongside a larger capital ship.

Controls:
7 = Re-Enable auto combat docking ACBs
8 = Launch Anti-sub/ship Chopper
9 = Recover Anti-sub/ship Chopper
