GK4541 - 31.10.2011

Ponieważ projekt GK4021 ze swoim relatywnie słabym uzbrojeniem nie budził entuzjazmu, prezentuje inny wariant - nieco większy projekt GK4541, przy analogicznym opancerzeniu i nieco mniejszej prędkości ma dwa razy silniejszą artylerię. To już znacznie sensowniejsza propozycja niż GK4021.

    Roll period: 15,9 seconds
    Steadiness    - As gun platform (Average = 50 %): 36 %
            - Recoil effect (Restricted arc if above 1.00): 0,38
    Seaboat quality  (Average = 1.00): 0,53

Hull form characteristics:
    Hull has raised forecastle
    Block coefficient: 0,606
    Length to Beam Ratio: 7,14 : 1
    'Natural speed' for length: 28,01 kts
    Power going to wave formation at top speed: 57 %
    Trim (Max stability = 0, Max steadiness = 100): 50
    Bow angle (Positive = bow angles forward): 6,00 degrees
    Stern overhang: 0,00 ft / 0,00 m
    Freeboard (% = measuring location as a percentage of overall length):
       - Stem:        25,43 ft / 7,75 m

    Ship tends to be wet forward

Ship space, strength and comments:
    Space    - Hull below water (magazines/engines, low = better): 114,9%
        - Above water (accommodation/working, high = better): 132,2%
    Waterplane Area: 63 364 Square feet or 5 887 Square metres
