The benefits of hovercraft are obvious. It can be suspended on the sea surface, reducing fluid resistance can reach speeds far beyond ordinary surface ships.

Also, because the hovercraft can be designed in a flat direction without considering too much fluid resistance, making it more stable than traditional ships in wind and waves.

The design difficulty is reduced. When traditional warships need to match weight to maintain balance in the hull due to the width of the hull, and they need to carefully calculate each piece of space, the air-cushioned warships are much wider to the designer.

Its high error tolerance is perfect for ship designers of this level of brightness.

In addition, the air-cushion warships are fast and suspended on the sea surface. Torpedoes and most mines are not dangerous to the air-cushion warships. In addition, the air-cushion warships are low when sailing, and the hull is low and the hull is easy to hide. It is difficult for submarines to find it, even if they are discovered... they can only stare at such warships.

Therefore, air-cushioned warships can be competent for multiple tasks such as anti-submarine, mine clearance, reconnaissance, sneak attack, etc., which are the functions of light frigates.

Finally, the air-cushion warship has an advantage that no warship does not have, that is, it can carry out landing operations. After refueling pure water, the air-cushion warship can directly drive onto the flat land. A thousand-ton warship, whether it is a firepower platform or a transport combat unit, can reverse the local situation.

In this tonnage, the air-cushion warships have all indicators that exceed traditional warships of the same level. The only shortcoming is that their deck area is larger than that of traditional light frigates and are easily hit by cross-shooting. However, light frigates mainly rely on speed to make a living. Many of the air-cushion warships are enough to ignore their disadvantages.

After confirming the power of the new light frigate he wanted to design, Daliang began to draw the design drawings of the warship on the drawings.

Keel laying.

Next is the watertight cabin... When sailing, it does not touch the water surface during combat, so the complex design of the watertight cabin will be omitted.

Add a circle of rubber skirt aprons for sealing steam around the bottom of the ship...

Forwarding the power system, use the propeller on the airship and place an order directly from the corresponding airship manufacturer.

Then there are various functional compartments, and then the deck is sealed.

Weapon modules on the deck?

At this time, Daliang suddenly found that he didn't know what weapons the Empire had were suitable for carrying on this light frigate. Then... the deck was empty, anyway, the upper level had enough space. At that time, according to the needs of the Empire, you can install whatever you want.

Pipeline layout?

There is no weapon system, and of course the corresponding pipeline does not need to be laid out. Anyway, the internal space is also very sufficient. First, make the power system to move the ship. The rest... wait until you are sure that the equipment is needed on the deck and inside the hull, then do it.

So Daliang, whose level is limited, really designed a "warship" with an engine with a hull, just as Marquis Whitehead and Anne expected.

Fortunately, a simple hull designed by Daliang is still able to hold on to it, at least you don’t have to worry about water inlet.

It took an afternoon to design this thousand-ton light frigate. This is probably the shortest-designed warship in the history of world warship design.

The rest is how to build it, the Black Fire Company shipyard has not been built yet.

This is not a problem for Daliang.

There is no shipyard, so it is built in a steel factory. There is not much stuff anyway, and the hull is simple and does not have much technical content. After steelmaking and blast furnaces produce steel, they can directly forge the plasticity according to the corresponding hull component size, and then assemble the keel and weld it on the hull hull.

It doesn’t require a boatman to do it simply or simply a steel worker.

Send someone to send the design drawings of the light frigate to the steel factory for people to manufacture them as soon as possible, and Daliang will read the information about the ironclad ships in this world.

Light frigates can be designed with air cushion power, but no matter how large the warship is, they can no longer follow this kind of thinking. Not only because the current air cushion engines cannot support large warships of thousands or tens of thousands of tons, but also because large warships have begun to pay attention to defense and firepower.

When hovercraft is suspended on the water surface, it cannot use water to absorb the reaction force generated by heavy artillery firing when reducing water resistance. The decisive battle at sea depends on strong ships and powerful artillery.

The light frigate is just a stepping stone for Daliang to intervene in the ship manufacturing industry. With outstanding warship designs, it can attract the attention of excellent ship designers, and thus invite excellent ship designers to their own shipyards. Being able to obtain orders from the Florminke Empire Navy can establish the credit of the Black Fire Shipyard. In the future, the warships designed by the Black Fire Shipyard can attract more attention.

If the Big Grave wants to build a combat platform for space combat, it must first understand the functions and design of the surface ship.

At this time, the Big Tomb had collected a lot of ship design information, most of which were stolen from some well-known shipyards. Among them, there were many battleships in service, and some were still in the drawings.

The drawings of each warship are much more complex than the light frigate just designed by Daliang. In addition to the main drawings, there are also detailed design drawings of each cabin and module. These are precious treasures, and throwing them out can trigger a war.

What Daliang is doing now is to supplement his knowledge of ship design, and then complete the design design of a space combat platform based on the existing and future magical alchemy technology that will appear in the Da Grave.

This is a weapon used by his own family, and Daliang dare not play like he designed a light frigate.

Every detail must be very careful. When Daliang was in seclusion and studying warship design, the Ruks Steel Plant completed the transformation of steelmaking equipment based on the steelmaking technology provided by Scarab Company, and the special materials needed for special steel alloys were also secretly purchased.

In the steelmaking blast furnace workshop specially built for special steel production, magic detection devices monitor every corner of the workshop. All the workers working here were personally selected by Ruks' clues, and he could not let anyone know the secrets here.

While Daliang was in seclusion, he studied warship design. According to the steelmaking technology provided by Scarab Company, the Ruks Steel Plant completed the transformation of steelmaking equipment, and the special materials needed for special steel alloys were also secretly purchased.
