I'm voting for: Sonar:
More RangeDesign votes: 12, 13, 15, 16, 17Production votes: F, L, O, Q, S, TWhy? Well,
12: Multiple Rocket Launcher: This provides us with the ability to quickly saturate an area with explosives, something regular artillery won't be able to do.
13: Better Rocket: Necessary for 12
15: New Naval Radar: This allows us to hunt subs much, much more effective. Diesel subs are nearly always on the surface unless attacking, and need to return there regularly. Even if we may not yet be able to detect snorkels/periscopes, that will cut down their operating range and possible attack targets. Plus, we can later use it for better maneuvering/airstrikes against the enemy surface fleets. If every convoy has a radar assigned, our bombers can be there before they can attack.
16: Air-To-Ground Rocket: Will give our fighters a higher stand-off rate against ground targets (and better bombardment capability), and may be used against bombers, too.
17: Multirole fighter: Maybe not necessary, but I like the multirole aspect and that we could later use it on carriers.
F: The sonar'll be awesome. Let's use it.
L: Ratel Tank: We have it, we need to build it.
O: Radar Airships: May be a very, very good advantage, depending how it's used.
Q: Expand Naval Yard: We need bigger ships to deal with the Capian Navy. And better ones, but that's -1/-1.1
S: Science Institute: Why not?
T: Interview Soldiers: That will give us some more feedback from the front, and we can design with a bit more purpose instead of just throwing together designs on a hunch like it has been done partly this round.
Sonar: More Range: Hell yeah. Refit's kind of boring, but with that we should be able to stop nearly every attack on the convoy.
Proposals I liked but did not vote for as they already had enough votes: -1.1, -2, -3, -4, 3, 5, D, G, H, M
Proposals I particularly disliked: 4 (as I don't have a clue how; see OOC), 19-21 (as I, for the moment, don't think airship carriers are that useful), N (resources)
That leaves me one design vote that I'll use if someone convinces me that a design is really, really good and I'm just blind.
