After the sucsusful launch of the LBS Untouchable the ship is for sale. The Untouchable class has 80 anti ICBM SM-2 weapons that can intercept missiles and planes, even stealth ones do to infared up to 250 kilometers away. Although for the stealth ones you'll have to wait for 20 kilometers. Also on board are two nuclear reactors that push the ship to 25 knots. It aslo has 20 Tomahock tubes, 2 triple 16 inch gun implacments, with another 6 16 inch guns. Its other weapons include, 24 fast firing 10 inch guns. The ship is 243 meters and 87 centimeters long and 50 meters and 67 centimeters wide. Its displacemnt is 87,287 tons. It has 20 anti torpedo torpedo tubes, capable of taking out enemy torpedos. The ship has 15 inch armour. Requires a crew of 2275 drrafties, and 78 officers. One can nearly defend and entire fleet from missile attack. Or 5 can defend a fleet against torpedos and almost all missiles. They are also good offensive weapons, and will make the battleship true again.
In recent tests, 250 ICBMs were fired at it and nearly all were taken out outside 100 miles, of the ship.
Price: 1.5 billion

Not bad, but you should come up with more specific stats. Unrelated it seems like my battlecruisers could take it on nicely, they're slightly larger then an Iowa class. My battleships and dreadnoughts(carrier/battleship crossover in the case) are even bigger then that.

Anti-torpedo torpedos? You would be better off with countermessures, much cheaper that way, and do you have any idea how hard it is to hit a torpedo wiht a torpedo?
25-10-2003, 22:37
They have both. Why would it be so hard. Patriots can hit missiels that go much faster.
Crookfur
25-10-2003, 22:39
Lima, i don't want to be rude but you do realise that tomahawks and SM2 standards can use exactly the same type of VLS cell?

http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ship/weaps/mk-41-vls.htm

If it was me i would just have 100 VLS cells and mix and match what you carry at any given time.


Oh and guns have one rahter nice advantage over missiles, they tend to be less effected by CIWS esspecially with nice high RoF weapons.
Taka
25-10-2003, 22:39
water is also much thicker than air, you are relying in a prop propultion system, so a torepod goes much slower and turns much slower than a missile.

yes but do they have anti torpedo torpedos, or are they one ship????????? oooooooo ahhhhhhhhhhhh.
Taka
25-10-2003, 22:48
Think of it more along the lines of someone throwing a tenis ball at you, and then you throwing a tenis ball at it and knocking it out of the air. . . that would eb closer than the Patriot reference. Plus, countermessures would still be cheaper than torpedoes.
25-10-2003, 22:49
Counter measures are not nearly as reliable.
Taka
25-10-2003, 22:53
That claim is akin to saying its more reliable to shoot a bullet out of the air with your own bullet than to put on a bulletproof vest. On a complelty unrealted topic, *IE, before I forget* congraduations on not Godmodding, our little Lima is growing up, soon we'll have to find someone else to label n00b.

o with the armoured vest thing. Yes if you can hit it because you dont get a bruiese. And we can hit it here.
25-10-2003, 23:08
think for 1 billion you can defend your fleet form missiles!
Taka
25-10-2003, 23:10
I am still a bit warry of that claim, but if you are willing to produce one with countermessured in place of the torpedos, I'll buy one, the Prince could always use anouther playtoy.
25-10-2003, 23:17

98,736 1 lb ingots of pure platium have been loaded onto a cargo plane and are being shipped to your nation. Two squads from the Takian First and Only Peacetime Legion have been dispatched to defend this shipment as it makes its way to your landing strips. We will arive with the hour, and take our latest toy when we leave. . . Graviton beams from the Dreadnaught Prince's Furry will be used to tow it to space, and fold it to Proxima Centari, where it will act as a museum and military history center.

26-10-2003, 14:28
Erm, so the ship carries 80 Anti-ICBM missiles.

You fired 500 ICBMs at it, and it took all of them out.

:?

Something's not right with your maths, there....and besides, if you said you had a ship that could take out 500 ICBMs (which, in case you didn't know, cruise at extremely high altitudes), I doubt many people would accept it.
26-10-2003, 14:30
that was a computer simulation. In real life chances are that a few would get by. But the point is it stops the vast majority.
26-10-2003, 14:32
that was a computer simulation. In real life chances are that a few would get by. But the point is it stops the vast majority.

No, 80 interception missiles would take out less than 80 ICBMs. There is a margin of error, that means not every single missile could be effective.

Therefore, if someone fired 500 ICBMs at this ship, more than 420 would continue on their merry way.

I think you need someone to service your nation's computers....
26-10-2003, 14:34
n. I have 80 launchers each with 4 missiles. I surpose that's 280. I gues I was calculating realoading. Oh well I'llchange it to 250, thank you.

Still, that's less than 500....

Congratulations on your new ship Lima Beans!
We would like to buy 3 of your ships.
27-10-2003, 07:25
OOC: I hate to point out to you that 250mi infra-red is impossible, as water molecules in the air hold a heat signature, and thus infra-red signatures at distance get obscured, making an effective infra-red range under the best theoretical conditions limited to well under 1mi (likely 500' or so). As location of water molecules is effectively random, there is no way to compensate.

Short-range missiles are virtually impossible to intercept because of short targetting and tracking times. So while you might be able to knock down cruise missiles, ship to ship missiles would hit before your missiles could acquire targets. Ship-based missiles cannot carry enough fuel to hit an ICBM, which is many miles above you, not to mention that, even if you could, the recoil of launching such a missile would sink your ship by forcing it under water.

I also agree with previous comments on the impossibility in intercepting torpedoes. Not to mention torpedoes leave no heat signature, and so are undetectable by almost any method (until impact), much less by something computer automated.

When designing ships/etc... think about the science of what you are proposing. If you don't know, try to look it up, or ask someone. (Or play future tech, where no one cares that half of their technology is likely impossible).
27-10-2003, 07:27
Well you can detect torpedos on sonar.... but everything else you said is pretty much right.
27-10-2003, 08:44
Well you can detect torpedos on sonar.... but everything else you said is pretty much right.

I seem to recall that torpedoes are too small for standard sonar, but i could be wrong. Certainly missile guidance systems aren't going to be able to incoporate a sonar system capable of detecting them.
27-10-2003, 13:01
Well I thought torpedos gave out enough sound.... For the infared, ok we'll do it for a mile. THank you for your corctions.

27-10-2003, 18:10
Congrats on the better RP, much nicer. As a side note, your ship may be better classed as a heavy cruiser. With only 6 16-inch guns, it hardly fits the standard for battleships. Not saying that you have to fit the mold, but this is more a super-heavy battlecruiser. Also, you might want to upgrade your armor a bit. it doesn't have to be thicker, necessarily, but 9" is the equivalent of a WWII era destroyer or so.

These are little discrepancies that you might want to clear up in the future. Nice vessel though. Also, although it is possible to intercept ICBMs with missiles, it is hardly an accurate job. Yes the tests say what the tests say, but it reality, you are not going to hit more than about 60-70% of the time on a good day. And consider that many ICBMs will actually separate before your missiles gets close, meaning all 2-8 warheads will be independent targets.

Torpedo hunting is actually quite easy, it's downing the torpedo that is hard. Anti-Torpedo-Torpedoes simply aren't very good. Nixies and other counter measures are much more effective for stopping incoming torps.

Overall, it needs a little work, but your tests are going to be much more effective than real-world scenarios. If this ship gets into a slugfest with most other nations capital ships it's going to lose. Most of our ships can take a good hit and still operate at a lesser efficiency... yours is going to take a single hit from a 12-16" shell and shatter at the point of impact with a 9" belt.

The Patriot was actually initially designed to take out incoming ICBMs as well. The newest versions are quite capable of taking out just about anything in the air, including fighters...

Lot of people making accusations but no one really knows what their talking about. First it hasn't really been proven that Patriots can intercept missiles (well I'm not to sure of its effectiveness in the Iraq war recently and that information will likely not be very reliable). A missile has never been sucessfully intercepted (like I said I'm not to sure about the Iraq situation). Patriots were primarily designed to intercept only certain missiles. The missiles which fall into this category are those similar to Scuds, Scaleboards, etc. Think of V-2s. These are the type.

Now for ICBMs (none of you know much about these). The only time these can be really and effectively intercepted is in their launch stage (ie: after they've just been launched and are going up towards the sky). Theres better termonology but I'm too lazy to find it.

Ships can be refueled at sea by refueling ships. Something very much overlooked on NS by RPers. I can see how ships would be deployed to areas suspected of having nuke ICBMs and then as soon as one appeared on radar an interception missile would immediately be launched as this would be the only real good time to intercept. Its like a ship version of airborn laser (using missiles instead).

There's somemore too but I forgot it.
27-10-2003, 23:45
thank youf or your information, but I read somewhere that SM-2s can take out ICBMs in all their stages. Would you like to buy some?

About your 'Untouchable' ship:

1)IR doesn't work up to 250 miles, maybe 10, 15 miles. The heat signature gets really mixed up by other heat signatures and water molecules in the air (they absorb and disperse the heat) at long ranges.

2) You can't intercept ICBMs 100 miles from the target, because they'd still be in their flight phase, which is way over the stratosphere.

3)Anti-torpedo-torpedos are not reliable, you'd have to track a fast moving target and it's hard to turn in water.

thank you Ill change that.

Ok, it's called the boost-phase. Realistically, the best chance you have of stopping an ICBM is 5 seconds before burnout. That does not mean onse they have just been launched and are going into the sky. An ICBM continues to burn until it is outside of the atmosphere and locked into an appropriate trajectory. You have, roughly two and a half-minutes for solid propellant missiles at range, and four for liquid-propellant missiles at range.

However, it is posible to intercept the re-entry vehicles it is just nigh on, impossible to do so as they have no propulsion, are relatively small and their only heat signature is the friction of the air on them. The new Patriots are designed to deal with this situation, however ABM tests have never been performed. As for shooting down aircraft, we have seen their capability in shooting down our own aircraft.

The current ineffectiveness of anti-ballistic missiles has led to the development of the airborne laser. So I retract my previous statement that the Patriot can knock just about anything out of the air and correct it to: anything except the untried and untested ICBM re-entry vehicle targeting.

Even if I had a higer war budget ,a battleship would not be worth nearlythat much. In fact, I am starting to think that my generous offer of 1 billion is too high. :cry:

Thanks for the details. However patriots are not so good. They have an 11.5 second solid fuel rocket motor. They weren't designed origionally as missile interceptors (I think). There are certain missiles in Israel designed specificly for intercepting ICBMs. Typicly anything coming down is difficult to intercept (ie: a scud B coming at you). Patriots are prox frag and are firstly targeted by radar on ground and then switched to its own radar when it comes into range. I don't know if any of these specs were designed for high altitude interception of ICBMs so you can judge for yourself. And yes it appears as if Patriots are good at taking out our own planes. Lol.

Also there are subs being developed (and this is what I forgot last time) which are small and fairly undetectable to sonar. So I would assume a small torpedo would be rather difficult to track.

Also, buy Lima Beans' ships (and planes).

Thought I'd put a positive comment to this rather kind fellow for allowing me to discus this on his storefront thread.

03-11-2003, 18:34
I have a couple of hints for you that may help you sell better. First of all, you need more specifications for your aircraft. You also need realistic altitudes... the max sustained altitude these days is 85,000 ft or so. the absolute altitude records is 123 or 125,000. Most fighters only get near 40,000. Some cruise near 60,000 or so. Also, get more facts about what you are selling. Make it somewhat original. We can all jsut go find someone who renames their stuff. Also, your A-10 improvement... to carry the A-10s load, armor and a 4" cannon... you have to be packing more frame than that. That's a 101.6 mm cannon you are talking about...ie the size of a tank's main gun. And there is no way on earth it's going to fly at Mach 2 with all of that on it. People aren't buying because it's not all that realistic. There are people in NS who are willing to go for something with speed but realize it can't be all that armored. Range is cut down, etc. Do more research before you just start slinging stats.

After the sucsusful launch of the LBS Untouchable the ship is for sale. The Untouchable class has 80 anti ICBM SM-2 weapons that can intercept missiles and planes, even stealth ones do to infared up to 250 kilometers away. Although for the stealth ones you'll have to wait for 20 kilometers. Also on board are two nuclear reactors that push the ship to 25 knots. It aslo has 20 Tomahock tubes, 2 triple 16 inch gun implacments, with another 6 16 inch guns. Its other weapons include, 24 fast firing 10 inch guns. The ship is 243 meters and 87 centimeters long and 50 meters and 67 centimeters wide. Its displacemnt is 87,287 tons. It has 20 anti torpedo torpedo tubes, capable of taking out enemy torpedos. The ship has 15 inch armour. Requires a crew of 2275 drrafties, and 78 officers. One can nearly defend and entire fleet from missile attack. Or 5 can defend a fleet against torpedos and almost all missiles. They are also good offensive weapons, and will make the battleship true again.
In recent tests, 250 ICBMs were fired at it and nearly all were taken out outside 100 miles, of the ship.
Price: 1.5 billion

The Typhoon class SSBM
The Typhoon class was a ballistic missile submarine made by the soviet navy and was the biggest submarine ever built. It was a devistain 175 meters long, and could sink to a depth of 400 mters. It was so amazing that it oculd launch its missiles from port and hit the U.S.! It carries 20 SLBM with up to 200 nuclear warheads. Its displacment is 24,500 tons, and can reach 27 knots. Its engines are 2 nuclear reactors. The ship has a crew of 45 enlisties and 45 officers. It holds 20 SLBMs being 2x10

no you didn't know that. You just said all you did was replace it. You just made the sub heavier, and take away space within the submarine.
11-11-2003, 13:57
so we took space our forces will have to live with it :D do to the extra weight it could proally only go at 38 instead of 44 knots

Mind explaining how you got something that large to reach speeds of 55 knots? I caught flak for making a fast attack minisub capable of 55 knots, so how the hell did you get a full sized sub to go that fast?
16-11-2003, 19:53
ooc: the moment I saw who had posted most recently I knew it wouldn't be an order

ic: we did it by taking a liquid metal reactor that could reach 40 knots(it also has a reagular one for when it doesn't want to go so fast) and then squeeed the steam down so that it would have more power.
