FD challenge. In the early thirties, Frank Whittle falls seriously ill. His work on Jet engines is delayed by several years, and as a result, so is German work. No functional jets enter service before the end of WWII, and all air battles are fought with prop planes. Design an "ultimate" prop fighter...

I have to say that I really question the under-deck hangar. The US used them on their nuke cruisers, and hated them with a burning passion, to the tune that they got decommissioned and turned into IIRC a gym. They leaked something fierce, and here you want to use them on much smaller ships that will...

Late Cold War (1975+) military plane. The only limit, it has to be propelled by a Marquardt supercharged ejector ramjet (SERJ) engine(s). Yes, this is basically a fan and HTP rocket BLOWN ramjet engine. In it's final configuration it was a rocket blown ramjet wrapped around a turbofan. At low speeds...

Submarine anarchy mayhem challenge: Design any submarine for any purpose from 1905-1995. It doesn't even have to be military, post submersible megayachts and speculative deep sea explorers to your hearts content. Only requirement is that it must be able to fully submerge underwater and not kill the...

I'll repeat myself. Unusual hull forms warships. Everything goes except monohulled warships. What about catamaran and trimaran type ships? Say dating back as far as the 19th century. I mean Robert Fulton designed a catamaran floating battery before the War of 1812, to defend New York harbor.which wa...

I created a cruiser based off the JMSDF Maya Hull, Inspired by the US Navy's DDX concept art. I figured the larger Hull from the Maya would have enough room for it to fit additional command spaces, after all the JMSDF kinda uses it as an air defense command ship. I'm open for input, this is my firs...

Hydrofoil warship. I was always intrigued by what could have happened if HMS Speedy's trials were successful... A corvette with the Jetfoil hull... 🤤🤤 You think a hydrofoil corvette would have been wild? For a while the USN entertained the notion of a seventy knot fleet. Things got WILD.

I mean Robert Fulton designed a catamaran floating battery before the War of 1812, to defend New York harbor.which was built. Not bad either. Maybe just a general "unusual hull forms" warship challenge? SWATH,...
