Fantasque, France Scout Cruiser laid down 1932
DESIGN FAILURE: Load weight too much for hull
Displacement:
2,492 t light; 2,584 t standard; 2,876 t normal; 3,098 t full load
Loading submergence 254 tons/feet
Dimensions:
411.42 ft x 40.68 ft x 15.42 ft (normal load)
125.40 m x 12.40 m x 4.70 m
Armament:
5 - 5.43" / 138 mm guns
1 - 2.95" / 75 mm guns
2 - 1.46" / 37 mm AA guns
4 - 0.53" / 14 mm guns
Weight of broadside 417 lbs / 189 kg
9 - 21.7" / 550 mm above water torpedoes
Armour:
Main gun shields 0.79" / 20 mm, AA gun shields 0.79" / 20 mm
Machinery:
Oil fired boilers, steam turbines,
Geared drive, 3 shafts, 79,754 shp / 59,497 Kw = 37.00 kts
Range 3,600nm at 17.00 kts
Complement:
196 - 255
Cost:
£1.767 million / $7.067 million
Distribution of weights at normal displacement:
Armament: 52 tons, 1.8 %
Armour: 8 tons, 0.3 %
Belts: 0 tons, 0.0 %, Armament: 8 tons, 0.3 %, Armour Deck: 0 tons, 0.0 %
Conning Tower: 0 tons, 0.0 %, Torpedo bulkhead: 0 tons, 0.0 %
Machinery: 1,840 tons, 64.0 %
Hull, fittings & equipment: 591 tons, 20.6 %
Fuel, ammunition & stores: 384 tons, 13.3 %
Miscellaneous weights: 0 tons, 0.0 %
Metacentric height 2.7
Remarks:
Hull space for machinery, storage & compartmentation is extremely poor
Room for accommodation & workspaces is adequate
Ship has slow, easy roll, a good, steady gun platform
Estimated overall survivability and seakeeping ability:
Relative margin of stability: 1.55
Shellfire needed to sink: 392 lbs / 178 Kg = 4.9 x 5.4 " / 138 mm shells
(Approx weight of penetrating shell hits needed to sink ship excluding critical hits)
Torpedoes needed to sink: 0.3
(Approx number of typical torpedo hits needed to sink ship)
Relative steadiness as gun platform: 73 %
(Average = 50 %)
Relative rocking effect from firing to beam: 0.19
Relative quality as seaboat: 1.12
Hull form characteristics:
Block coefficient: 0.390
Sharpness coefficient: 0.29
Hull speed coefficient 'M': 8.84
'Natural speed' for length: 20.28 kts
Power going to wave formation at top speed: 68 %
Trim: 65
(Maximise stabilty/flotation = 0, Maximise steadiness/seakeeping = 100)
Estimated hull characteristics & strength:
Underwater volume absorbed by magazines and engineering spaces: 220.0 %
Relative accommodation and working space: 94.7 %
(Average = 100%)
Displacement factor: 56 %
(Displacement relative to loading factors)
Relative cross-sectional hull strength: 0.37
(Structure weight / hull surface area: 32 lbs / square foot or 157 Kg / square metre)
Relative longitudinal hull strength: 1.06
(for 18.04 ft / 5.50 m average freeboard, freeboard adjustment 6.24 ft)
Relative composite hull strength: 0.41
power is about equal to what was historically installed
