Info: The Project Monitor, christened as the USS Alaska class Arsenal Ship, is a pivotal maritime innovation by the North Atlantic Coalition's United States of America Branch. This colossal vessel is engineered to serve as a floating missile battery, capable of delivering a barrage of precision strikes across vast distances, thus reshaping the concept of naval fire support. The USS Alaska class boasts an unprecedented armament of 300 missile cells, with a mix of KDA Naval Strike Missiles and RUM-139 "Swarmer" Missiles, designed to engage a variety of targets, from enemy vessels to strategic land-based objectives. The sheer volume of missiles makes the USS Alaska a strategic asset that can saturate a target area with a relentless volley of munitions, overwhelming even the most robust defense systems. The ship's design is optimized for stealth and survivability, with a low profile and radar-absorbent materials that reduce its signature against enemy sensors. Despite its formidable size, the USS Alaska class is intended to operate with a minimal crew, leveraging advanced automation and remote control technologies. This not only reduces the risk to human life but also allows for more space to be dedicated to its primary weapon systems. The Project Monitor represents a significant leap in naval warfare capabilities, enhancing the Coalition's long-range strike options and providing a deterrence factor that can be deployed across the world's oceans. Its presence alone can shift the strategic balance in a region, offering the North Atlantic Coalition an unmatched ability to project power from the sea. In service with the Coalition, the USS Alaska class Arsenal Ship operates alongside carrier strike groups, amphibious ready groups, and allied naval forces. Its role is to provide a robust, sea-based platform capable of supporting a wide range of military operations, from conventional warfare to humanitarian assistance and disaster response. With its advanced missile systems and cutting-edge design, the Project Monitor underscores the Coalition's commitment to maintaining naval superiority and ensuring peace through strength. The USS Alaska class serves not just as a ship but as a cornerstone of the Coalition's maritime strategy for decades to come.
