#45 Conozco los motivos pero por muy ingenioso que sea uno no se puede librar de los fiascos , ya que el barco de prueba que hicieron no se ha enfrentado a oleaje fuerte , Los diseños basados en romper la ola tienen una tendencia al vuelque alta y no puedo dejar de jugar con la idea de que un destructor de 4000 millones termine en el fondo del mar por una tormenta .
" The Russo-Japanese War did prove however, that the controversial tumblehome battleships were excellent for transiting across the globe, especially when encountering narrow canals, and other waterways; but still could prove dangerously unstable when watertight integrity was breached "
" the stability of the DDG-1000 hull design in heavy seas has been a matter of controversy. In April 2007, naval architect Ken Brower said, "As a ship pitches and heaves at sea, if you have tumblehome instead of flare, you have no righting energy to make the ship come back up. On the DDG 1000, with the waves coming at you from behind, when a ship pitches down, it can lose transverse stability as the stern comes out of the water – and basically roll over."[71] The decision to not use a tumblehome hull in the CG(X) cruiser, before the program was canceled, may suggest that there were concerns regarding the Zumwalt's seakeeping.[55] However, in a 1/4 scale test of the hull design, named 'Sea Jet', the tumblehome hull proved seaworthy.[72] "
El sea jet es 4 veces más pequeño y no se ha enfrentado a temporales fuertes .
