MNS minecraftia

== MNS minecraftia ==
the MNS minecraftia is the first ship of the minecraftia class battleships,christened on january 8th, 2032 by president james smith.the vessels base is at fort york in the capital of minecraftia,information on its armor is kept confidential.as of july 26th, 2033, it has not fought in combat.its place of origin is at fort york. throughout its design phase, its design changed radically from being similar to the RBMCAF era delons class battleship, to being more like the USS montana. its first day of being in the water was spent patrolling with the about to be retired at the time carrier spike.the ship carries 3 dinghys and multiple lifeboats in the event of the ship sinking, the main rounds it shoots are 20in experimental thermobaric bunker buster rounds. when it struck the water, it sunk multiple small boats and when it sounded its horns, it shattered windows 10 miles away.the vessel has chaff and flares to defend and a crane to deploy dinghys. it began being designed in 2019 as part of project nighthawk, a top secret minecraftian project, it began design in 2022, and it finished being built in 2032. it carries two plane catapults so it can deploy experimental folding wing drone fighter.j
== design phase ==
during the months of 2019 minecraftian ship designers recived a message from the minecraftian goverment to design a new powerful ship specificly a battleship to provide the nations fleet with a capable battleship. for that reason the requirements were difficult to meet with and even though her hull is capable of supporting 16inch weaponry with spare space for other weaponry however, the goverment requested for 20inch weaponry as her main weaponry of choice but that request made the minecraftian designers to question if such weaponry is ever possible to be fitted on a ship that narrow with some spare space to add additional weaponry even so the goverment also wished to have an unnmaned drone on the new class of battleship which made the minecraftian ship designers question even more of the practicality of such design along with spare space to have the command center for the Unmanned drone without sacrificing weapon emplacements.however after some time designing and taking inspirations from the montana class battleship of the USA the design requirements were met and she was constructed at 2022 at an unkown shipbuilding facility.
== shakedown cruise ==
the minecraftia at 2033 shortly after being armed for combat began her shakedown cruise under the command of captain john woods after her succesful shakedown cruise she was Immediately assinged to poplar and her fleet being one of the most powerful ships to date for the minecraftian navy.
== weaponry history ==
the minecraftia class boasted 16 20inch weaponry capable of having bunker buster shells for shore bombardment however this was not without it flaws as it was met with the british prince of wales class battleship her quad 20 inch guns were hard to maintain and often jammed during firing tests of her weapon batteries however after some time the firing mechanisim jam was fixed and she was now able to fire several shells without jamming her quad 20inch guns. Along that most of her missile and CIWS weaponry was brought from the US as a form of a “ship project” by the american defense administration.
== malfunction incident ==
at march 30th of 2034 the minecraftia is tasked to target several tiny dummy vessels with her main guns using her bunker busting weaponry at 13:00 American time the battleship fired 20 inch bunker busting high explosive rounds at the specified targets shortly after the first firing of the main batteries turret number 1 and 4 suffered a gun barrel elevation mechanism jam at barrels 1 and 2 in turret number 1 and barrel number 4 in turret number 4 repair staff attempted to fix the issue however the jam cannot be fixed unless brought into a dock capable of such repairs the now captain of the CPNS malin James woods authorized the firing of the remaining functional barrels of turrers 1 and 4 along With turrets 2 and 3 to resume firing at the remaining targets then at 13:45 the fire direction radar of the minecraftia was unable to withstand the recoil of all The main turrets produced and was knocked offline. james Smith now ordered for the ship to go to the nearest minecraftian navy owned port for repairs at full speed.
== Refit ==
at September of 2037 the MNS minecraftia has been called by the minecraftian naval administration to undergo a refit at fort York in which was to replace the phalanx CIWS systems with 4 155mm advanced railgun system 2 on each side to counter missiles with high velocity shrapnel and incase of the ship being surrounded by hostile craft are to act as multi range artillery assisting both the 20inch artillery and the 5inch secondary artillery in Hitting and damaging the enemy warships that are in range and to also replace the old turbines With 2 nuclear reactors providing primary power and 2 rolls royce turbines for auxiliary power when the nuclear reactors are near meltdown levels and are needed to be shut down to Prevent a massive explosion in which could irradiate the nearby area the ship is in.
