You finally drew it out!!!

...okay, I totally want one, now. Look at that AWESOME bow. It just has the LOOK of something that's gonna lay some serious smackdown on a bunch of baddies.

Yes, Atlantis has finnaly ditched those business like bows and added some flare forward. I already added it to my encyclopedia last week however I should have posted it here much sooner so, voila!

Everything looks good, except the stability: 1.02 means you'll be counterflooding awfully quickly....

He obviously wants the 70% steadiness. I usually don't go for it if it means that my stability will drop below 1.05. Looking at the design, I think that with some minor adjustments, it should be possible to have 70% steadiness and a stability equal or greater than 1.05. After all, there is some hull strength left.

Hows this? I had to reduce the shell number as a result of adding the proper shell weight. I also increased her draft just a wee bit to compensate.
I might need to increase her size just slightly if I want to retain the 150 shell loadout and get a seaboat rating of 1.10 with a stability of 60 or higher.

150 rounds of main gun ammunition is probably not necessary, I'd be fine with reducing it some (down to 120-130 rounds or so) if needed. Stability of 1.09 is FAR, FAR better than 1.02.

Belt length (yes, I know, my pet comment) seems a bit short, but you're hardly the only one doing it.

I'll have to check the drawing on my template but IIRC the belt is as drawn. I might dip the shell loadout to 140-135 and see what I can fit in to compensate, perhaps more torpedo bulkhead armour.

With reduced shell loadout and increased (slightly) torpedo bulkhead.

The heavy secondary battery makes the ship a bit crowded. It depends whether it's felt to be needed. 16x130 arranged like KGV would give more space on the superstructure and better arcs of fire. Might want to have a little play around with the AA FC Directors to give more overlap. The cranes seem to be a little short as well, moving them outboard to where the little life rafts are should solve the problem.

Looks quite nice otherwise. Its interesting to see Atlantean ships looking more like USN ones rather than RN ones.

A new sub design. Bulgaria has also ordered the Delfi to this design.

Its a pretty small submarine for all that armament. How does it all fit? Would it not be better to replace the two 76mm guns with one 102mm gun? I can't really see when lots of little shells would be needed.

Fair point on the guns, 1x75mm should be sufficient given the historically comparable designs I've looked at.
