I just started playing this game late last year, and have been lurking on the forums for a few months.
I haven't actually seen combat in my game yet, but I expect to soon as I am just starting to leave sol.
I have read a few guides/AARs and watched some videos, so I think these ships are decent (maybe?) but I'm sure there are loads of things I could improve, so criticism/advice is super welcome!
The Ethiopia class was originally designed exclusively for PPV, but has been refitted into a (hopefully) competent PD escort.

I am also planning on making a sensor frigate, Missile frigate, and AMM frigate, all based off of the Kazakhstan's hull. then maybe a carrier of some sort, idk.
