Does anyone know if these ships exist in FSX or if anyone has them in the works? Looking for the USS Guam - LPH-9

Different ship from a different Era. Same name, but that's about it.

There is a scenery package in the works ATM which will feature "nearly" the entire US Navy surface fleet.

LPH class is already retired so that won't be included, but you will have the LHA-6 America, LHD-1 Wasp Class (8 ships) and LPD-17 San Antonio Class (10 ships), along with LSD-41 Whidbey Island Class (8 ships) and LSD-49 Harpers Ferry Class (4 ships).

These will be partially animated, with rotating radars, working elevators (unfortunately nowhere to go below decks), and well decks that open and close (gauge operated). So get ready to drive your LCAC ashore...

More on this later as the project gets a little closer to being baked.

10 aircraft carriers
22 Aegis cruisers (plus 5 decom)
21 Flight I DDG Aegis destroyers
7 Flight II DDG Aegis destroyers
34 Flight IIA DDG Aegis destroyers
8 Wasp Class LHD amphib assault ships
1 America Class LHA amphib assault ship
9 San Antonio Class LPD amphib transport dock ships
8 Whidbey Island Class LSD amphib dock landing ships
4 Harpers Ferry Class LSD amphib dock landing ships
1 Blue Ridge Class LCC command ship (plus one decom)
13 Avenger Class MCM mine countermeasures ships (plus one decom)
3 Freedom Class LCS littoral combat ships
2 Independence Class LCS littoral combat ships
1 HSV-2 Swift Class Catamaran high-speed vessel
2 T-AH Mercy Class hospital ships
4 T-AOE Supply Class fast combat support ships
15 T-AO Kaiser Class replenishment oiler ships
14 T-AKE Lewis & Clark Class dry cargo ships
1 landing craft air cushion (LCAC) vessel

Over 180 ships in all, as AI traffic. Of course there will be .tps files as well as ready made groups for AI carriers, for those that prefer that tool.

Will have working gauges to trigger elevators on carriers and well-deck doors on the amphib ships.

Made a little blog, to share my progress.
