What would Our current Missile pod equivalent be? Could we use Torpedo or missile pods with modern water navies? What about Land forces? MRL only with towed pods, perhaps guided. Anti Air rocket box, missile box firings.

Basically the idea of old "arsenal" ship (partially implemented in refitted "Oiho"-class SSGN). The relatively sheap ship with minimal crew (or automated) which only carried the missiles without any fir control. Basically, the floating supply of missiles for destroyer or cruiser to use.

Oh well, if shortening the front is what the Germans crave,
Let's shorten it to very end - the length of Fuhrer's grave.
