Diesel Internal combustion motors,
Geared drive, 2 shafts, 8,318 shp / 6,205 Kw = 16.00 kts
Range 5,000nm at 8.00 kts
Bunker at max displacement = 379 tons

Complement:
487 - 634

Cost:
£1.697 million / $6.787 million

Distribution of weights at normal displacement:
Armament: 0 tons, 0.0 %

- Belts: 0 tons, 0.0 %
- Torpedo bulkhead: 0 tons, 0.0 %
- Armament: 2 tons, 0.0 %
- Armour Deck: 0 tons, 0.0 %
- Conning Tower: 8 tons, 0.1 %
Machinery: 242 tons, 2.5 %
Hull, fittings & equipment: 2,429 tons, 25.1 %
Fuel, ammunition & stores: 406 tons, 4.2 %
Miscellaneous weights: 6,600 tons, 68.1 %

Overall survivability and seakeeping ability:
Survivability (Non-critical penetrating hits needed to sink ship):
11,253 lbs / 5,104 Kg = 23,602.7 x 1.0 " / 25 mm shells or 2.2 torpedoes
Stability (Unstable if below 1.00): 1.12
Metacentric height 4.6 ft / 1.4 m
Roll period: 16.1 seconds
Steadiness - As gun platform (Average = 50 %): 70 %
- Recoil effect (Restricted arc if above 1.00): 0.00
Seaboat quality (Average = 1.00): 1.35

Hull form characteristics:
Hull has raised forecastle
Block coefficient: 0.800
Length to Beam Ratio: 4.80 : 1
'Natural speed' for length: 19.84 kts
Power going to wave formation at top speed: 42 %
Trim (Max stability = 0, Max steadiness = 100): 52
Bow angle (Positive = bow angles forward): 10.00 degrees
Stern overhang: 0.00 ft / 0.00 m
Freeboard (% = measuring location as a percentage of overall length):
- Stem: 29.53 ft / 9.00 m

- Average freeboard: 13.78 ft / 4.20 m

Ship space, strength and comments:
Space - Hull below water (magazines/engines, low = better): 82.6 %
- Above water (accommodation/working, high = better): 108.6 %
Waterplane Area: 28,220 Square feet or 2,622 Square metres
Displacement factor (Displacement / loading): 137 %
Structure weight / hull surface area: 74 lbs/sq ft or 360 Kg/sq metre
Hull strength (Relative):
- Cross-sectional: 1.01
- Longitudinal: 0.99
- Overall: 1.00
Hull space for machinery, storage, compartmentation is excellent
Room for accommodation and workspaces is adequate
Ship has slow, easy roll, a good, steady gun platform
Good seaboat, rides out heavy weather easily



AS.5
Three pre-production vessels laid down in 1933. Less extreme than previous types. More emphasis on reliability and strength. Straight foils are easier to construct and maintain. 2xFiat-Guidoni Diesels gives 10,000shp for 45-50knts sustained. Twin funnels/intakes aft. More enclosed bridge structure. 1x100/47 mounted forwards. 2xtwin 25mm amidships. 4x450S aft.
