Корабельное

[avshap]

Небольшая статья “для полных чайников” о проектровании кораблей: The meeting now proceeds to serious design input. Gunnery asks if the quad turrets are really necessary; the reason is explained and he sighs. Gunnery really doesn’t like quad turrets. His department also questions the AA armament; they have grave reservations about the guns selected for the secondary battery; they would like fewer, heavier weapons. It’s explained the guns have to be DP or they’ll need two different guns and weight economy won’t take it. The point is taken Engineering query the propulsion choices; they can offer a slightly more powerful turbine in the same weight and volume - would the designers like some more power? They could have another 10,000 SHP if they really need it. The design team accepts gratefully. Aviation demands the entire ship be decked over and converted to a carrier; they are taken into the car park and beaten into insensibility. When they recover, they ask for a second aircraft and a cross deck catapult; this is included. Seaman’s division doesn’t like the tripod mast aft of the forefunnel, it’s likely to suffer from smoke interference. That’s noted and the mast reversed. This has an impact on bridge layout but nothing that can’t be handled. Signals state they have to have a clear masthead position; they can’t say why but it’s very important. All this input is fed into the design and modifications made as needed. Eventually, when all the departments have reviewed the design, it’s approved.

P.S. И вообще, там много вкусного

Хехе. А ты ни разу не слыхал весёлую историю о том, как БПК превратился в линейный крейсер? ;)
