It is mentioned in a line that states &#8220;plans to supplement the current through-deck cruiser force with an additional 12 ships of the Advance (CD 1981) design have been shelved.&#8221; That seems to indicate that the <em>Advance<\/em> class is a type of through-deck cruiser that would be in line with other general designs from that publication. Unfortunately, many ships listed in that product never saw the light of day.<\/p>\n<p>An excellent design by <strong>Kelvin0514<\/strong> was indeed based on <strong>Todd Gunther<\/strong> and <strong>Jackill&#8217;s<\/strong> designs seemed to fit the bill.
