A large battleship class, the Koester is designed to escort larger battleship and to bombard ground targets. Basically, its just a giant Ximénez class battleship.

VTOL slider to control propeller pitch
Trim slider to control rudder
Roll to roll
Leave throttle at 10% and VTOL slider at 1/3 up when not turning.

And according to some calculations, this would cost 3 billion dollars if built today.

So... Springsharp performance is like this:

Distribution of weights at normal displacement:
Armament: 8,789 tons, 10.3 %
Machinery: 9,569 tons, 11.2 %
Hull, fittings & equipment: 25,789 tons, 30.2 %
Fuel, ammunition & stores: 41,370 tons, 48.4 %
Miscellaneous weights: 0 tons, 0.0 %

Overall survivability and seakeeping ability:
Survivability (Non-critical penetrating hits needed to sink ship):
42,934 lbs / 19,474 Kg = 5.5 x 25.0 " / 635 mm shells or 3.4 torpedoes
Stability (Unstable if below 1.00): 1.51
Metacentric height 13.8 ft / 4.2 m
Roll period: 13.9 seconds
Steadiness - As gun platform (Average = 50 %): 59 %
- Recoil effect (Restricted arc if above 1.00): 1.09
Seaboat quality (Average = 1.00): 1.18

Hull form characteristics:
Hull has raised forecastle
Block coefficient: 0.682
Length to Beam Ratio: 8.84 : 1
'Natural speed' for length: 32.97 kts
Power going to wave formation at top speed: 52 %
Trim (Max stability = 0, Max steadiness = 100): 50
Bow angle (Positive = bow angles forward): 0.00 degrees
Stern overhang: 0.00 ft / 0.00 m
Freeboard (% = measuring location as a percentage of overall length):
- Stem: 28.71 ft / 8.75 m
- Forecastle (20 %): 36.91 ft / 11.25 m (28.71 ft / 8.75 m aft of break)
- Mid (50 %): 28.71 ft / 8.75 m
- Quarterdeck (15 %): 28.71 ft / 8.75 m
- Stern: 28.71 ft / 8.75 m
- Average freeboard: 29.69 ft / 9.05 m
Ship tends to be wet forward

Ship space, strength and comments:
Space - Hull below water (magazines/engines, low = better): 115.3 %
- Above water (accommodation/working, high = better): 230.8 %
Waterplane Area: 105,501 Square feet or 9,801 Square metres
Displacement factor (Displacement / loading): 96 %
Structure weight / hull surface area: 179 lbs/sq ft or 876 Kg/sq metre
Hull strength (Relative):
- Cross-sectional: 0.53
- Longitudinal: 0.68
- Overall: 0.54
Caution: Hull subject to strain in open-sea
Hull space for machinery, storage, compartmentation is cramped
Room for accommodation and workspaces is excellent
