I am gonna answer your question in two ways since I don't knwo exactly what you are asking for.
Why Phalanx and goalkeepers, well I use Phalanx for central CIWS duties, and Goal keepers for CIWS duties on starboard, and port
And
Why Phalanx and goalkeepers (In general)
Well I think the Phalanx is a pretty good CIWS, and the Goalkeeper is small, and is just as good in my own opinion.

That's a terrible idea. Hacing 2 redundant and completely incompatible systems doing the same job is a pain in the ass logisticly.Furthermores having goalkeepersthat that only cover port or starboard is ridiculous when your 2 Phalanxes have fields of fire that cover both port and starboard.
As for the goalkeeper being small, phalnax actually takes up less space than Goalkeeper. The Phalanx is pretty much self contained you slap it on the deck where there's some freespace and hook it to the ship's electronics, Goalkeeper on the otherhand has quite a bit of supporting equipment located belowdecks. keep in mind what I said last time you posted, when adding equipment like weapons systems, keep in mind that what you see is just the surface and that you usually have more equipment that goes with it below decks. The phalanx is one of the rare exceptions in terms of weapons systems in that its self contained.

Yeah but the Zerinite version of the "goalkeeper" is different.
So your information is a bit redundant.
But I will implement some things too keep the design good, and you happy about my ship's, and navy's logistics.

I know I said I was gonna be realistic about this design, but upon implication of zerintie versions, and logistics, doctrines, and policies it becomes what it is.

Whatever Zerinite policies may be, a 30mm CIWS and a 20mm CIWS will still need 30mm and 20mm ammunition, respectively. If you really made a new Zerinite version of the Goalkeeper that has complete parts and ammo commonality with the Phalanx, why not just use the Phalanx?
I'm also rather curious about what is meant by a CIWS-heavy "doctrine." CIWS is not meant as a first line of defense against missiles, but rather, as an emergency last-resort tool for that one AShM that makes it past your SAM fire. For a ship this size, two Phalanxes would be more than sufficient, and indeed two Phalanxes make up the CIWS armament of an Arleigh Burke. This would free up the amidships areas for, say, RHIBs/motorboats, hatches, stairs, and all those other little details.

The best defense against cruise missiles isn't spamming CIWS, it's spamming surface-to-air missiles.
Indirectly, the best defense is to detect and destroy the launch platform before launch, but that's a different matter.

Okay,
Tell me how making a pretty realistic destroyer isn't going too work?
And why?
I am getting rid of the goalkeepers per request,

I'm also a stickler for naming conventions.
What are your ship names ans why? Just curious.
I intend to name a carrier Death From Above. Accompanied of course, by the submarine Death From Below.
I also like the name Traffic Cop for a carrier, in reference to the "speed limit enforced by aircraft" signs.
