Chulalongkorn Class Torpedo Cruiser
Standard armament includes four light ship-ship guns, ten long range stealth torpedo launchers, (ten mounts, 30 bays) Six heavy AA guns, and four light AA guns adjacent to the superstructure. Oh yeah, and a wok. o<[]:^)
It is of note that while Chulalongkorn is classified as a cruiser, its really just a light cruiser with torpedoes, or maybe one might call it a heavy torpedo boat. Then again, there's nothing 'light' about 30 torpedo bays, is there? You might notice the rear ship-ship guns are in an odd position; the Kingdom's engineers thought it would be more beneficial if they could face forward, to aid against Crossing the T tactics. Chulalongkorn is more vulnerable to an attack from the rear, however. We'll see just how advantageous or disadvantageous that decision proves to be in future naval battles, I suppose.
