Whaleback Battleship

In America's Great Lakes during the late 1800's, a form of freight ship known as a 'whale back' became very popular. This ship is my take on what a battleship made using that design philosophy would look like. This ship uses steam power to generate both engine and electrical power; has three main turrets each with three advanced cannons, sixteen anti-aircraft flak turrets, 12 forward-facing torpedoes, and two sub-vehichle repair floats beneath the stern for purposes of playability. All major interior areas are accessable by a series of stairs and corridors. The main detection systems are as follows:
1 Forward Facing 90-degree Sonar
1 360-degree keel-mounted sonar
2 custom radar systems, composed of:
4 90-degree radars,
1 gimbal radar
placed on a spinblock and set to rotate
Each AA Gun has a 90-degree radar on board,
4 'fire directors' with 5m coincidence range
finders, 90-degree radar, 90-degree IR, and
90-degree visual camera



If you have any advice/suggestions on how to improve this design, or would simply like to give some constructive criticism, feel free!
