"ZAIRA" - Triton Class Gunboat

12.6k Flippos  6.5 years ago

This type of gunboat is a fast attack ship never seen before.

-Thanks to 3 marine drive underwater jet engines it has a top speed of 321mph (150mph for roleplays I participate in). To cope with the extreme speeds the ship is equipped with an Automatic-Maneuvering-Stabilizer-System (AMSS) which utilizes 4 separate thrust ports and two movable weights in the keel area as well as an advanced planning hull (equipped with belt armor). This means that an instant 180 is theoretically possible even at max operating speeds.
~~~Note that this should NOT BE ATTEMPTED when on a manned operation unless all other options are exhausted.~~~

-For armament the ship has 1 multipurpose 44mm gun and 1 missile launcher configured for 122m (in diameter) missiles.
