Abomination Class Artillery Barge
After the HP shipbuilders saw the grand cannon which is being sold by the Island of Rose they immediately got to work designing a vessel capable of carrying the gun and being able to operate it without destroying the ship with the recoil.
The gunbarrel has been made shorter but is still able to fire 800 and 700mm rounds. Because we upgraded the firing mechanism, the gun still maintains the same range even though the barrel is shorter. After we liften the whole thing off the train, we ripped everything off which wasn't needed to operate the gun. This gave us a much lighter gun to work with. On the picture only the middle hull of the trimerian ship has been displayed. The two other hulls give more room for the crew and to store tools and equipment.
Gun Specifications
Effective range: 40 km
Max. elevation: 55°
Total weight 1000 tons
Barrel weight: 300 tons including 80 tons breach block & ring
Overall length: 32 m
Width: 6 m
Height 12 m
Barrel lenght: 28 m (40 times its caliber)
Shell type Armor: capped 3.75 meter shell (without propellant casing)
Shell Weight: 7000 kg
Ship Specifications
Crew capacity: 220
Ammo capacity: 1000 shells
Armour thickness: 10 inch steel plating
Ship length: 120 m - 394 feet
Ship width: 65 feet - 20 m
Maximum speed: (nautical miles): 29 - 55 KM/hour - 34 miles/hour
The shells have also underwent some serious changes. A more explosive composition as well as a lighter material give the shell more power and higher range. This works very well for 600mm shells. The old engine has been improved also, from diesel engines to 2 nuclear powered engines.
Serpentine Class Stealthship
The latest breakthrough of the HP Shipbuilding Company. Remember those old 18th century warbarges? Pirates and rum? Well this ship is an homage to the old days with the same design but underwent a major change to fit in the modern times we live in.
Because those old ships had whole cannon batteries we thought why don't we do the same thing. Six 455 mm howitzer guns have been placed on one side of the hull. They are mounted on a rail so quick shooting on both sides of possible. 6 Vulcan miniguns operated by computers have been added onto the top of the ship to wear off boarding parties and for close combat. Two 255mm have been placed on the bow of the ship. They all had to be adjusted to lower the recoil and minimize injuries to the operator. Not only they fire much faster than a normal gun on a battleship, this ship works amazingly well as a support ship during a landing on enemy shores. Not designed to encounter other battleships on the high seas, this ship is made for coastal offensive operations. A special launching system for seamines has been added and a small launching unit for medium ranged cruise missiles.
The stealth technology has also been installed as well as the latest naval radar systems. It may sound weird, but this ship is incredibly stabil even when all guns are being fired at the same time.
Specifications
Maximum crew capacity: 185
Maximum bullet capacity: 1 million rounds per Vulcan gatling
Maximum shell capacuty (455mm): 10.000 shells (255mm) 5000 shells
Lenght: 330 foot (100 meter)
Overall armour (trimerian hulls): 12"
Gun armour: 5"
Lich Class Submarine
Before we started with designing this fine new vessel we asked ourselves this question: what can possibly so special and diffirent people will fear it?
The answer lies between an ICBM submarine and a normal anti-ship submarine. We combined both ideas and come up with a special design built to withstand the massive pressure and to lay waste on the enemies fleet. The reasoning simple, why lauch a torpedo horizontally when it's also possible vertically?
Specifications
Maximum missile capacity: 120, including normal torpedoes
Maximum crew capacity: 150
Builders: Barrow & Spencer Holy Panooly Shipbuilding.
Power Plant: Two nuclear reactors, one shaft
Length: 377 feet (114.91 meters)
Beam: 34 feet (10.36 meters)
Displacement: Approx. 7,800 tons (7,925.18 metric tons)
Speed: 25+ knots (28+ miles per hour, 46.3+ kph)
The almost 95% with foam covered exteriour of the submarine is coated with a special foam wich absorbs roughly all of the radar waves directed at them. It works the same as a normal stealth bomber, only this one is under water. The coating and tiles used on the F117 and B2 bombers have underwent serious changed to function to full even under water.
