Hayai-Class Gunboat

Re: Hayai-Class Gunboard

Gunboard?

Is that like a snowboard, except you ride it over bullets? *swish! swish!* :D
 
Re: Hayai-Class Gunboard

I was thinking it was a hoverboard with Guns on it. Kinda looks like one. =D

Jokes aside, this looks pretty nice, and that interior makes me jealous. I wish I had the patience to do that, or the time, for that matter.
 
Re: Hayai-Class Gunboard

Whoa, deckplans?

*goes check*

Wow! Deckplans!

Geez, Nashoba, I wanted to make my next ship submission the most visually detailed yet, but you just raised the bar a whole lot. Well done!
 
Re: Hayai-Class Gunboard

Thanks, sadly installing a new 3D drawing program caused my data storage drive to get corrupted, and I lost all my DOGA creations. :(

So now I've lost some of the details that I put into this like the equipment from the AMTC. <sigh>

Wow Fred talk about deju vu i was actually thinking the exact same thing last night. Good job Nash
 
It depends, for most of the things I don't know if I will spend the time recreating stuff. If something comes up where I need it, that might be a reason.
 
Wow. I had been considering refitting the Ketsueki, but this submission pretty much uses all the ideas I had in mind. All but one really, and it has the hardware to be used in that way.

Nashoba, question. Can this craft perhaps "cling" to a larger craft via the graviton beam projector on its ventral stern? If so, it could potentially act as a deployable support/escort to larger craft, or even be "dropped off" by a host ship in enemy territory for stealthy ops while the host ship escapes either undetected or provides a distraction. It could also cling to the inside of or the sides of wrecks for ambushes, and these abilities would only be improved if you added active camouflage systems to its hull.

If so, it uses a lot of the ideas I had for a refitted Ketsueki, and implemented better. Fully retractable and armored weapons, stealth, etc. You may want to consider https://wiki.stararmy.com/doku.php?id=xiulurium as an optional coating for the most stealthy ops though.

This can get expensive if the hull has these things added, so it might be optional, but it's your call if such things are cost effective for its role.
 
Toshiro,

Actually I have updated the page spelling out the attaching to ships or debris, and added a 1b variant that has the enhanced stealth.
 
If there are no objections this submission will be approved on Monday the 25th.
 
All major heat-generating pieces of equipment are paired with appropriately-sized scalar-based heat absorbers, which rapidly and effectively absorb thermal radiation and convert it to usable energy.

You should remove this line from the coolant system entry because scalar heat absorbers wouldn't work. You can't just absorb heat and turn it into energy without a heat gradient, and the 'scalar heat absorbers' wouldn't be able to radiate heat away to cool anything.
 
Every other modern KFY uses them and they work fine.

Issues with already widespread and established tech do not belong in this thread.
 
Its basic laws of physics stuff that should have been fixed a long time ago when I first brought it up.

We should have a policy of doing things right, fix the problem now and stop using bad tech in new submissions.
