That's a bit surprising, since the ESU used this kind of  "multi-level" 
structure long before the NI and IJN did - the old ESU BC,  BB, BDN and
CVL 
were all designed in this fashion, with the bridge section  mounted
below 
and forward of the main hull. The only "radical" thing about  *this* 
particular change is that it has now spread to the other ESU ship  sizes
as 
well...

Not nearly as dramatic as the IJN ships are. If you look them over, IJN
DDs  
are eve leveled, where the ESU doest. ESU doesnt do anythign liek that
util BC 
 size, and then it aint really level layered more jsut stacked	over...
