Overall survivability and seakeeping ability:
Survivability (Non-critical penetrating hits needed to sink ship):
182,605 lbs / 82,828 Kg = 65.7 x 17.7 " / 450 mm shells or 49.8 torpedoes
Stability (Unstable if below 1.00): 1.34
Metacentric height 14.6 ft / 4.5 m
Roll period: 15.9 seconds
Steadiness - As gun platform (Average = 50 %): 60 %
- Recoil effect (Restricted arc if above 1.00): 0.36
Seaboat quality (Average = 1.00): 1.20
Hull form characteristics:
Hull has low quarterdeck ,
a normal bow and a cruiser stern
Block coefficient (normal/deep): 0.600 / 0.604
Length to Beam Ratio: 7.39 : 1
'Natural speed' for length: 32.65 kts
Power going to wave formation at top speed: 44 %
Trim (Max stability = 0, Max steadiness = 100): 50
Bow angle (Positive = bow angles forward): 22.00 degrees
Stern overhang: 10.37 ft / 3.16 m
Freeboard (% = length of deck as a percentage of waterline length):
Fore end, Aft end
- Forecastle: 20.00 %, 36.09 ft / 11.00 m, 26.25 ft / 8.00 m
- Forward deck: 40.00 %, 26.25 ft / 8.00 m, 24.28 ft / 7.40 m
- Aft deck: 25.00 %, 24.28 ft / 7.40 m, 24.28 ft / 7.40 m
- Quarter deck: 15.00 %, 16.40 ft / 5.00 m, 16.40 ft / 5.00 m
- Average freeboard: 24.67 ft / 7.52 m
Ship space, strength and comments:
Space - Hull below water (magazines/engines, low = better): 64.5 %
- Above water (accommodation/working, high = better): 197.0 %
Waterplane Area: 112,577 Square feet or 10,459 Square metres
Displacement factor (Displacement / loading): 119 %
Structure weight / hull surface area: 277 lbs/sq ft or 1,353 Kg/sq metre
Hull strength (Relative):
- Cross-sectional: 1.11
- Longitudinal: 0.97
- Overall: 1.00
Hull space for machinery, storage, compartmentation is excellent
Room for accommodation and workspaces is excellent
I think this is good enough, after adding in some AA guns and whatnot.
One important question: What's the difference between a 4-gun mount and a quad mount in SpringSharp terms?
