This first isn't THAT much of a stretch, but I thought I would post it in case someone hadn't thought of it before and Pro Tips sounds like a more re-usable thread name.
A re-fit like this might not seem to make a terrible lot of sense given the fragility of the stern missiles, however in this design I had previously had a very large stern gallery of 3" AAA so from the start the after turret has been an L turret, thus having a restricted firing arc over the rear. Unnecessary, but a nod to realism, even if it is self-limiting.

So the brilliant idea would be to surprise the enemy with 12 missiles once the retreat order is given ? It indeed seem like an odd setup, but I quite love the look of gun cruisers with ASM. Give then quite an interesting look.

I was thinking this must be over the topside load limit till I saw the displacement.

The Russians had several DDGs fitted with aft firing batteries of SSMs for a parting (and likely suicidal!) Shot at any NATO units nearby if the balloon went up.
