where would you fit the turrets?

>>34902573
It's like you want to be an easy tasty expensive target for missiles and planes.

>>34902573
Where the fuck are all those gun crews supposed to sleep? One of those turrets alone is like 50 people, not to mention the hundreds on the secondary guns and the AA.

Why aren't catamaran carriers a thing? Wide deck space and stable at rough seas.

Literally a floating powderkeg unless you want to shoot the whole thing like once.

>>34902573
>one shot trap on each side of the boat
>the future
Missiles, planes and even torpedoes (hence why i mentioned the shot trap) will turn that thing into a heap of scrap metal.
We are living in an era where Naval dominance is very unimportant

>>34902573
Fuck off.

>>34902688
Catamaran hulls can't carry the same weight at the same speed as monohulls, they don't have near the same hold area, and frankly, between roll stabilizing fins, anti-roll gyroscopes, and god knows what else, large ships don't really gain anything from multihull designs.

>where Naval dominance is very unimportant
Care to say why? Because sea and air are probably about as important.

So all stupidity aside, why couldn't you load this thing up with HELLADS or its equivalent and go about your business?

In sure the helicopters can provide adequate ASW coverage.

I always wondered what kind of weapons those actually had.

They showed some dudes firebending through gun-like tubes, but that doesn't seem like much of an improvement for anything.

What happens if it gets torpedoed right in the middle? That's like a papercut on your finger crotch

And they're not even radar directed.. at least I see no radars on there.

Three hulls would be better, and the central hull is 300% scale compared to the outriggers.

But what's the point? Fire is a plasma, not a solid. It has no kinetic energy.

>>34904024
>Fire is a plasma
No, a flame is primarily a mix of gasses resulting from a combustion. If it becomes hot enough to ionize, it is then plasma; not fire.
>It has no kinetic energy
Also wrong. As a state of matter, regardless of it's specific state, fire has mass, and if it is being propelled, velocity; thus it has kinetic energy. That brings us back to-
>But what's the point?
While generally less dense than solids or fluids, brought up to a high enough velocity a gaseous body can have quite a punch to it. That being said, I think the real point here is that firing anything on fire at just about anything else will cause some significant degree of damage, on account of being on fire and all.

>tldr; it's just a flamethrower you stupid cunt.

Each addon ship can be raised or lowered to alllow all guns to fire at the same time.
Side guns can shoot submarines below water
Rudder gun for persuing ships/subs.

How do you punch holes in an enemy's ship with a flame thrower?

>>34902573
catamarans under no power do not have any directional authority

>>34902573
I feel like it's worth bringing up that those centerline turrets are effectively useless, and you can only fire one broadside at a time anyway. You'd be able to bring just as much autistic firepower to bear with just one of those hulls.

P-270 Moskit / Sunburn:
Features a 120 kiloton fusion warhead
has a terminal velocity of mach 3
approaches its target at 15-20 meters of altitude
targets passively until seconds before impact

here's a video of it without the warhead, only the booster and its fuel.

2 or 3 torpedos or some much as a large drone hits the right spot on that ship and you're looking at a dual-hulled coral reef in the making.

wut about trimaran tho

>>34907882
This video always gives me the lulz.

It is 2 missiles, not one. One of them arrives at a low enough altitude it is leaving a wake, and it strikes the near side of the ship at such an angle it bounces off.

The second arrives high enough that it isn't leaving a wake. It appear to strike roughly mid ship then exit out the stern.

Despite these seemingly ineffective engagement locations the entire ship pretty much explodes along its whole length at the same time.

It is clearly a propaganda video, with the ship rigged with explosives detonated about the time the missiles strike. Hilarious that people see this and think warships BTFO.
