Author Topic: Submarine (wip)  (Read 1623 times)

I agree, now that I look closely (assuming this is the back of the sub that he's making,) as well as the deck, it looks rather like a U-Boat.  Still, the engine still seems a bit large and a tad bit too far forward if the above observations are true.

This shows the approximate appropriate size for a submarine diesel engine, which by the way is a V-16.

Thanks for the link. I'm splitting the engine into two now, but I don't know if it'll work then I'll need to attach them both to the single generator. I think they both need generators of their own?

Also I'm building the interior now.

That engine is a bit too large for a vessel of that type. The submarine with a engine of that size would be twice as big.  Also, modern nuclear submarines have a nuclear reactor and steam turbines; even those are smaller than your monster engine.  I like how you're going about the hull, and I hope this helps you make it as real as possible.

Nice, but yeah they probably would been individual generators, but hey, that means your sub has much more power.

i liked it till i saw the fuel cell. but you really cant see much and  submarines are like 5times bigger maybe 3 or 4

I just finished the new engines. It leaves a good space in the middle for a battery




I started the interior too. It's pretty small though
