Don't worry too much, help me when you have time. It's a nice looking ship, very elegant, can't wait to see it when it's more complete. But are you sure it's 10000 KW and not MW? I'm no naval engineer but if the Benchijigua Express needs almost four times that power to reach 42 knots and your ship i...
That really nice to hear, glady I contributed to something even if it's just inspiration. So... what it's going to be, a frigate, a corvette or what? I just installed some Dutch radars and sensors, I hope I put the correct ones correctly. And I also made a crude pump jet from the single picture I fo...
Thanks for the advice! I just did those corrections, now I think I only need the radars, sensors, deck lines, perhaps redo the pump jet a la Sea Jet and do a little correction on the geometry of the mid section of the outriggers. http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/8039/dmp001timbuktu3.png Now someth...
travestytrav, that just sounds wrong. SPY-3 = the system of the zumwalt. and you about everything works together, as long as it is made for the job. for example: aegis can not guide aster because aster requires an different guidance system. @ canopus: now we're getting somewhere! first of all I'd l...
Looks like you've gotten most of the issues worked out. Your idea for concealing the exhaust the gas turbines is pretty unique, but it puts the exhaust fairly close to the waterline, which may be cause problems in heavy seas. I know other ships have stern exhausts for gas turbines, but I don't know...
I did some updates: http://img688.imageshack.us/img688/8039/dmp001timbuktu3.png Mostly were small details and fixes on the fucked geometry of the tower and hull. I also followed acelanceloet's suggestion and changed my peripheral VLS to a central MK41 cluster... two actually. And I got rid of the Br...
I've read and understood the issue, but since I'm new let's see if I understood what I'm supposed to do. Name the files with the abreviation of the shipe type, then it's name and lastly it's year without spaces or underline, correct? Does this also applies to fictional ships?
You see the lower flat encasing the vanes? Now imagine the vanes close and that flap opens, there you have my reverse. I'm probably going to change it; any suggestions on a proper shrouded screw, or should I go with a standard screw? Upper view: http://img690.imageshack.us/img690/8039/dmp001timbuktu...
first of all: air =/= water. you can't make it like it is on an F-117, because it doesn't work that way :P waterjets are noisy, because they get water in, turn an prop through the stream, and push it out. in an normal setup you only have the prop. waterjets are very useful for low draft ships thoug...
