The Hoplite Class can be produced for $915 million each.
Catamaran configuration is not possible as hulls are pre-made, and we would like to point out that this hull is not ideal for a frigate and that your configuration has left large empty spaces on the superstructure.


----------------


The Leocardia Class can be produced for 1.5 billion per ship (including 50mil BSA discount), however we must not that the AEGIS weapons system (which costs $400 million), is almost completely useless without seperate missiles. The only use could be to direct missiles fired from other warships, so we will still make it if you wish.

Well my original intention was to have Phoenix Dynamix manufacture the ships per your design. I think the best thing would buy a fair number of ships and then purchase domestic production rights if you want to make more at a later date.

The Phoenix Milita
31-05-2007, 05:27
IC: It is not our choice, Phoenix Dynamix has faced harsh government fines and penalties for circumventing the long standing ban on trade with CA members and selling to Blackhelm Confederacy through a loophole. Considering that elements of the Griffencrest Corporation which is based in Blackhelm Confederacy, are currently and actively involved in military operations against allies of The Phoenix Milita, the ban on sale of military goods is extremely lenient.

While the cost for the DPRs may be out of the budget of Greal, we are willing to lend the government the 45 Billion USD necessary to purchase the DPRs. If the government is willing to accept this proposition, we will wire the 45 Billion USD to the Pheonix Militia for the DPRs.

Would like a crew of







Choose your bridge style:
Cyber(very computery, 2012 style, add $15 million)

Choose your weapons:

4 Close-In-Weapons System turrets double 40mm gatling
2 PD THEL Anti-Missile Lasers


Crew served weapons(would like mount points and deployable structures. The deployable structures should be 'fold down' that is they assemble to a multi level turret that multiple people can be behind and use armory supplied weapon mounts rather than fixed mounts) However in these fixed positions I would like 'chutes' that can by pneumatic pressure distribute supplies such as ammo cases, as well as 'fit a human' so that it can be used as a pneumatic aided escape port or deploy port, basically an elevator but high speed) This elevator system should connect to the subsurface armory which will allow weapons to be deployed to these stations, as well as allow ammo resupply or personnel supply or evacuation. The deployable multilevel say three story 'towers' should be sheilded by a good post kevlar armour to stop small arms and other projectiles as well as be flame resistant. I'd also like the air ports to be able to deploy flame or act as a flame port. The flame port should not directly interact with the deployable structure.
These towers do not themselves need to be sheilded from missles etc.. but their covering 'or top' when they are undeployed should be made of battleship type armour. The deployable stations should also be 'BC biochem sheilded' but still have a bottom level exit/door/flap on the ships deck)










2 Torpedo tubes large torpedo tubes positioned aft and forward able to deploy 'UMV's' and undersea to air missles. as well as standard torpedos. These tubes should be 180 degree by 175 degree rotation

2 180 degree by 175 degree port and starboard centre aligned torpedo tubes. also usuable for UMV's etc.. these tubes

It is hoped that launch position can be adjusted, but the reason for trajectory is that I would like to have deployable supercaviated shell guns. Which can be aided in material by a magnetic pulse assistance. That is firing assisted by magnetic. There firing magnets should be able to extend beyond the ship and also act for Electronic warfare purposes including induced EMP.

I'd like to be able to deploy depth charges through the tubes.

NOW HERE IS THE CHANGE. those torpedo tubes I'd like two on the surface with 360 by 180 degree motion.. usuable for the same type of systems but in addition to the supercaviate shells also non cavaiate aerodynamic sabots.






Choose your combat systems:
MK 9 MOD 4 AEGIS Weapons System(add $400 million)
MK 36 MOD 2 Super Rapid-Blooming Off-Board Chaff System

A consolidated radar able to link with other dian systems. This would include an EM dish array that can be used for other EM broadcasts, including radio and television broadcasts, a transmission tower, and arrays. These arrays would also be part of the sensor suite that can intercept and augment EM signals that is the computer can reroute or augment intercepted EM signals, as well as act as a jamming system.

The onboard computer should be able to use sensor information and intergrate with the tracking for fire control feed purposes.

The sonar system should be internatilized and be able to be utilized with the torpedo bays. HiFreq com via sonar bouncing should also be available that is SONARCOM.



AN/SQR-19B Towed Array SONAR (TACTAS)
AN/SLQ-32A(V)3 Electronic Warfare Suite
Mk91 Fire Control Computer
(Mk37 Gun Fire Control Mk38 Gun Direction Mk40 Gun Director) Fire control not only should be linked to the ships main computers through protected gateway systems but should also be able to use the personal PDA's that every crew member has, and accept personalized user data, via the PDA which acts as a type of smart card. The mounts points should be automatable so that in instances where the gunner is downed ships computer programs or remote controlled gunning can be done, ideally after a weapon is mounted the crewmember would not need to be manually gunning but instead should be able to access the gun with authorization via their PDA and the ships internalized wireless communications system. Or in the ships 'remote warfare rooms' which emulate the ship and create 'emulated' conditions with the capacity to score in a near VR environment so that combat awareness is available to everyone with network access and clearance for their account.


Choose your class name: Pluton Class
The first of which should be called the Hercule



Basic Statistics:
Displacement: ?? cant calculate this right now

I'd like the ship to be as small as possible for potential litoral usages - I'd also like a condom designed for it.. one that can inflate and have generators connected to it to lift it like a hydrofoil--- crazy but could it be done?
Length:
Beam:
Draft:
Propulsion: 1 pressurized water nuclear reactor (add $300 million) I'd like some backup generators as well.


Max Speed: 35 knots is fairly fast but if this thing can be made to go any faster with your knowledge do it up.


Base Price

When ordering please fill out this form.
Engine: I'd like magnetic guasable drives with a dynamic assisted steam turbine design fed from the neclear reactor, but these steam units and the turbines should be usable to create electricity for ship purposes, and these turbines should be utalizable at different points. I'd like to have electrolysis capacity as per regular with dian engines, and for it to be able to seperate clorine and sodium as well as utilize these elements in sodium reactions or otherwise. The steam itself when not required at maximum temperature should be able to be condensed and used for showers so non radiation of the water used in the steam process, by a system of internal hotwater radiate and secondary and teritary and quadrentary steam channels should be utilized so that some of the purified water will be safe for use.


Crew accommodations: Crew quarters should be double 7x5 x 8 cells with a common storage and congreation area for every 10 cells, or for every 20 people. There should be 10 such cell blocks and a central mess and preperation area. Just before the prep areas there should be a laundry shute that has computer assisted information used with the smart card by remote detection or manual entry. Every clothing peice also has an RDIF tag to assign which crewmembers clothing item it is. After it is cleaned it is returned by a simple robotic mouse drone which handles returns laundry and puts in in the specific crewmembers assigned clothing shelving in the common room on the cell block.

Thus there is room for 200 crew in the cell area.
There would be 5 unit areas for a total of 1000 slots, basic crew would be 600, the other 2 areas would be reserved for marines. In an ermergency these may be able to used as quads but that would be side in like the romans did.

Bridge style: The bridge style should be dual bridge one located forward the other after with 4 other computer control remote rooms that can serve as reduced backups.
Via VR though any PDA could act to control the bridge controls, with proper clearance and prior bridge code authorization. But either there has to be prior authorization via biometic authorization or the bridge must not respond to a request for access for 10 minutes or some other operations set deadline, so that if there is no response it is assumed that the bridge crew has been disabled requiring remote access. Ports to hardplug in equipment should be available. standing room as well as sitting room, coms and various view and tactical screens as well as a central combat awareness table should be available. There should also be a bridge armory available. Major control consoles should be fully sheilded but modulized so that whole consoles can be taken out or replaced. Consoles only when given console specific remote access should be available. Bridge collor should be coloured natural colour whether metalic grey or black.

In addition to the 'basic' crew quarters there is the 'rotational' quarters. Which has 10x10x7 rooms with a seperate bed. There are 20 of these rooms with each four linked to a common area that has lounge areas and room for other amenities. (the idea is every few days the unit gets down time in better accomodations with a private showers for each quarter block etc..

Lictors have 4 of these blocks dedicated to officers, or if there is not that many lictors to the next highest ranked officers such as legionaires.

Imperial Command sets aside 10 suites that are doublesized 20x20x7. As a reward the VIP of each week gets to spend one week in one of these suites.

The brigs are dual purpose they are linked to the medical center and each brig room can be used as an operating table or for a sick patient. Each brig cell is quarentinable. There would be 20 such brig cells much like the room design that is two blocks of 10 with a central 'equipment and personnel area'.


There would also be a fitness area. Also a 'small balast flood pool that fills with saltwater or purified reactor water, as well as a hottub filled by noncharged hotwater from the steam system. All hotwater when available comes from the nuclear system. Waste water is used as 'the' first level hotwater after being filtered as applicable. Thus would be grey water is purified and discarded at the end of the cycle..

Any other requests: It is assumed that this ship will conform with various Dian standards. There are many to go over but I don't see why you wouldn't be able to do them considering a 2012 capacity. I'd like the ship kept as small as possible, and include 'stealth capacities' as much as possible with reduced crossection as much as possible. I'd like it thermally sheilded as much as possible with where possible the hull designed with an outward 'caging' with modular cage units to counter torpedo effect. Would also like one landing port with an internal hangar able to accomodate a large fighter or helicopter (several if there is space). for VTOL etc.. no runway.
Requested class name: PLUTON

The Phoenix Milita
31-05-2007, 22:27
In short, no.
The build a battleship workshop is profitable for Phoenix Dynamix because of the relative ease of switching out custom components on such a large platform. It would cease to be profitable if we had to make smaller vessels in the same way. We do have a number of pre-designed medium to small vessels and submarines in our main storefront (http://phoenixdynamix.proboards38.com/index.cgi).
An aircraft carrier is a distant possibility since its the only thing large than a battleship that we deal with.

ICCD was toying with foreign production to promote good will but considering the potential 'divergence of the initial design' perhaps ICCD will handle it domestically but would still be willing to contract with PM, if they would like to bid on any components.

We think we may expand on the initial design, if you would like to partner outside the Build A Battleship concept then you are welcome to communicate this.

Best Wishes,

We would be very interested in working with you to create the Pluton class, and we believe we can build many of the components. We can provide the combat systems you specified and almost any of the weapons you will require(we request your engineers work with us for the custom torpedo tubes). We can also take care of the crew accommodations and interior, the nuclear reactor, some of the engines. The rest of it can be left to another contractor, preferably one in your own country so that your specifications can be strictly adhered to. Once a prototype of the class is completed by our joint efforts, we could actively produce the vessels for you in our shipyards for a modest fee.

Theoropia would like to buy a ship; however, there seems to be a problem. Most of our ships are crewed by 1,000 to 1,200 people, because frankly we find smaller ships are faster and more agile. Would it be possible to make the ship smaller, so as to fit 1,000 people? If so, my order is below.

Cold-War(Soviet Union- 1988 style)

8 Naval Bombardment Cannons(eg 16 inch gun)
5 Close-In-Weapons System turrets
30 VLS Cells (tomahawk)
Please leave some room. We are going to add a few of our own equipment.

- AN/SPS-49(V)8 Air Search Radar
- AN/SPS-67 Surface Search Radar
- AN/SPS-64(V)9 Navigation Radar
- AN/SPQ-9 Gun Fire Control Radar
- AN/SQS-53C Hull Mounted SONAR
- AN/SQR-19B Towed Array SONAR

3 submersible turbines powered by 3 diesel electric generators

The hull size is fixed, there is no changing that, but we can equip the interior so that it can only hold 1,000 but even then we don't recommend this...
8 cannons(8 does not go into 3 turrets evenly by the way) you need at least two shifts of gunners, gunner's mates, loaders turret commanders etc. Then you need damage control and enough engineers to take care of the three generators and 3 engines for at least two shifts. Then you need two shifts of crew to operate the missiles, the combat system, navigation and other bridge functions. Really the minimum is as listed, 1,400 crew.

A better alternative would be to click on the Phoenix Dynamix Storefront link and buy one of our smaller cruisers or destroyers!



And the workers of Phoenix Dynamix thank Dominion of Vetaka for their gift of $4,000 each.
