Re: Real Gunbucket For Real Designs

I recommend not using Photobucket, since they put text over the picture, saying it is "protected...."

Re: Zumwalt being converted

Yahoo reporting about first now! Almost like they are using the Explorer web browser still. I have at least heard about the project for more than a year ago. But that aside, I'm not surprised the 155mm cannons or ammo became a failure, when those that do procurement for US Navy didn't even bother ...

Re: Deck spacing

What is the typical deck spacing on modern warships? By deck spacing, I mean the spacing between deck plates. I keep seeing videos and pics of warships where the conduits and piping for wiring, ventilation, and other things suspended from the top being only 6 inches above the heads of crew members ...

Re: Rockhampton Class FFM

Quite interesting design of an quite interesting ship. And with an "affordable" weapon load that gives it enought to fullfile it's mission and defend it self. I do have to say it's quite an speed monster, compared to similar frigates (I can only thing about the Norwegian frigates with almost similar ...

Re: Comparing subs

If you was to go nuclear, your engineringn space needs to be at least twice the size. The reactor from Ace. is more of an surface ship reactor without or minium shielding. And I don't think it have the necesary power. The size of the engine compartment is more similar to and conventional submarine ...

Re: Comparing subs

Depends on what you are asking about! But notice how much space the enginering space take up on Borei-3, all the way from aft of the missile compartement, everything is for the powerplant.

Re: HMS Belfast, 1980s Guided Missile Cruiser Conversion (Alternate History)

Thanks for your insights, I welcome the feedback. The exhaust stacks/funnels were fitted with an IR cooling module and some kind of filter; I thought something like this would prevent soot and fumes from damaging and interfering with the radars, sensors, and antennas. The exhaust stacks themselves ...
