We plan to release this to PC and Xbox Series S|X (subject to testing) via the MSFS Marketplace and Orbx - In order to comply with Microsoft policy the MSFS Marketplace release will have weapons (cannons etc) removed.
We look forward to bringing you more detail and will post more here as this scenery nears release. In the meantime, enjoy this sneak peek at what’s to come
Hahah! Aww, thanks, @Baracus250! I am definitely adding this to the “Hawai’i Thread.” Some nice representations of Hawai’i vessels. I wonder if they’ve done the tugboat-towed barges between the islands, too?
Some shots of Ke’ehi/Keehi Boat Harbor, Honolulu, right next to Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (PHNL) and the busy Honolulu Harbor, plus a little more info about the pack.

This scenery pack will introduce several new military and civilian models. The U.S. Navy vessels will include:
SSN-774/Virginia class submarines (SSN)
Harpers Ferry class dock landing ships (LSD)
Ticonderoga class guided-missile cruisers (CG)
Arleigh Burke class guided missile destroyers (DDGs)
Oliver Hazard Perry class guided-missile frigates (FFGs)
Tarawa class Landing Helicopter Assault (LHA) ships
USS Bowfin (SS/AGSS-287)
…and of course, the USS Missouri
We are likely to delay publishing the Hawaii pack until we can test against Sim Update 10 and confirm the performance fix (notice here). We will of course keep you all updated
Oh - and regarding Ke’ehi / Keehi. Either are correct. I was told once that you can chose to use the diacritical marks or not, but just don’t mix them in a document. The proper way is to either use 'em the whole way, or none of the way. Thank you for your attention to detail with the culture!
The USS Missouri will have her mighty 16-inch guns covered in the MSFS Marketplace version of the scenery in order to comply with Microsoft’s no weapons policy. But we think ‘Mighty Mo’ still looks gorgeous

Unfortunately I had to uninstall all your products as it was killing the fps of my machine.
I was getting 6-10 fps in the south east, and terrible frame rates in Hong Kong. Removing the whole package has freed up my system but I miss my ships. Hopefully something gets sorted in the coming weeks.
I think I just need this addon plus the Orbx Honolulu Landscape package (hopefully soon) and ok also Honolulu airport and I’ll never fly anywhere else!
What - it is acutally possible to land on these ships and crude oil tankers and stuff?
Wow how cool is that!
I thought a helicopter would just clip through the ship´s body and fall into the water…
OK now this gives helicopters a whole new and very interesting new purpose in combination with this Global Vessel and other Water Vessel Mods
