A SPECIAL NOTE to LINUX USERS or GIMP USERS!!!!!!!!: If you try to view these using GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program), your system may thrash and drive you mad. The file may take minutes to attempt to load. Every single move of the image by cursor might restart the thrashing. I find it incomprehensible that such a condition could exist over all these years, but it does. The copy shop swore that its software was using the standard .tif encoding. Yet, in every successive upgrade of Linux I've used since 2002/2003 (Mandrake 9.2, 10.0, 10.1, and which means libraries and GIMP are also updated) GIMP chokes on these .tif files. However, the Kodak image editor/viewer application provided with Win98 opens up each file in the snap of a finger (well, in about 2 or 3 seconds). And that is in Win98, running inside Win4Lin, running inside 256 MB of RAM on a Celery (Celeron Coppermine-based) system and a 16 MB RAM Riva XL video card. Just a warning.
IF you desire, you can/may take them (specifically, the CGHRD-1065, file-named as above) to a local copy shop and print them full size. Full size is:
CGHRD-1065: 5 sheets, each at 60.96 cm x 94.44 cm (24” x 36”)
Note that a print shop might charge US$15 per sheet just to have them scanned and print them out on 20 pound bond paper.

CGHRD-1065, CGHRD-1165, and CGHID-1278 (I haven't yet made any "guesstimations" for the CGHRD-1065 II, but since it's using the KWRR-21...) all have a nominal (notional) operational economical cruising
radius of some 10,000 nautical miles (at 14 to 16 knots) and an
abysmally uneconomical, battle-short, sustained-flank-speed
endurance/radius of some 980 (nine hundred eighty) nautical miles.
This table pertains to the CGHRD-1065:
 |
 |
The CGHRD-1065 is/was intended to be superior (on paper, really but in "real life" if possible) to the
DDG-51 and DDG-51 Flight IIA in many if not all respects, particularly with regard to fuel (but in retrospect, this hull is too full for that, and is best suited for inshore work where depth/speed are not issues), electromagnetic and acoustic
deception, cruising radius, helicopter mix and carrying capacity, dual/Flag
CIC, defensive capabilities and several other features (dual,
independent, active tactically-controlled fin stabilizers (two sets), auxiliary propulsion
units (three), large torpedo rooms port and starboard, inside the skin
of the ship), dedicated quarters for the Air Detachment enlisted
personnel (they are still technically detachments since they rotate (come and go) based on operational necessities, but are part of the crew for UNAUN and morale purposes), dedicated accommodations for Law Enforcement Detachments, excess fresh water production capacity, full-sized vertical missile
launchers mount forward (61 cells forward and 61 cells aft).... Once you see the blueprints, you may have your
own questions about the real ship's capabilities or lack thereof...
(Some of you may have heard (as hearsay or heresy or otherwise) or actually recall that at the time the DDG-51 was perceived as a contract and technical threat to the "darling Aegis Program", and therefore was "neutered" (deprived of the twin hangar bays, even though the FFG-7 class had them from the onset; the AE-26 class had twin bays capable of supporting TWO SH-3 Sea Kings) to not interfere with mission planning, operational justifications, targetted funding and ongoing committments to the CG-47 project fiercely defended by its adherants who weren't ready to accept the DDG-51...)
Anyway...
However, it could be said that, to get the little extra fuel aboard, I "cheated" somewhat: I designed the hull with a
wider body below the waterline to increase or guarantee having more
fuel aboard without displacing (dispensing with or compacting)
compartments above the waterline. Also, I lengthened the ship to 523
feet overall, and 479 feet at the heavy load/deep draft waterline (so, 475 at the light waterline). But, compare that to:
- CGHRD-1065 Flight I:
- LOA of 159.41 meters (523 feet)
- LWL of 145.99 meters (479 feet)
- Beam max 20.12 meters (66 feet)
- Waterline beam, heavy 17.98 meters (59.00 feet)
- Waterline beam, light 17.81 meters (58.50 feet)
- Draft, heavy, 6.40 meters (21.00 feet)
- Draft, light, 4.72 meters (15.50 feet)
- Depth, heavy (navigational draft) 9.37 meters (30.75 feet)
- Depth, light (navigational draft) 7.77 meters (25.50 feet)
- Displacement:
- ~9,950 tons light
- ~11,250 tons heavy
- DDG-51 Flight I:
- LOA of 153.92 meters (505 feet)
- LWL of 142.03 meters (466 feet)
- Beam max 20.24 meters (66.42 feet)
- Waterline beam 17.97 meters (58.97 feet)
- Draft of 6.31 meters (20.69 feet)
- Depth (navigational draft) 9.45 meters (31 feet)
- Displacement:
- 6,625 + tons light
- 8,320 tons heavy
- DDG-51 Flight IIA:
- LOA of 155.75 meters (511 feet)
- LWL of 143.56 meters (471 feet)
- Beam max 20.24 meters (66.42 feet); waterline beam 17.97 meters (59 feet)
- Draft of 6.3+ meters (20.95 feet)
- Depth (navigational draft) 10.06 meters (33 feet)
- Displacement:
- 6,600 tons light
- 9,217 tons heavy
- DDG-173 Kongou class:
- LOA of 161.0 meters (528.21 feet)
- LWL of 150.50 meters (493.77 feet)
- Beam of 21 meters (68.89 feet)
- Draft of 6.2 meters (20.34 feet)
- Depth (navigational draft) xx.xx meters (xx.xx feet)
- Displacement:
- x,xxx tons light
- x,xxx tons heavy
- DDG-177 Atago class:
- LOA of 170 meters (557.74 feet)
- LWL of 161 meters (528.22 feet) or 165 meters (541.34 feet）
- Beam of 21 meters (68.89 feet)
- Draft of 6.2 meters (20.34 feet)
- Depth of 12 meters (42.65 feet)
- Displacement:
- 7,700 tons light
- 10,000 tons heavy
Actually, the hull is very broad compared to the DDG-51. (Of course, naval architects will want to know the ship's Froude number, block coefficient, area of the midship section, center of gravity, center of buoyancy, righting moment, metacentric height, heeling moment and more; propeller and rudder efficiency, electrical demand at various conditions of readiness). But, the CGHRD-1065 has a
light load waterline beam of 58.5 feet and a deep draft of 59 feet.
Excluding the sonar dome and propellers, the CGHRD-1065 has a deep
draft of 21 feet and light load draft of 15.5 feet. The sonar dome
projects 11 feet below the keel, and the propellers project 3.75 feet
below the stern keel area.
However, as for high speed maneuvers in
shallows, the four fins are intended to impart small amount of "lift"
to the hull at the stern to prevent "augmented squat" and reduce the
effects of any pitching where subsurface topography varies enough to
impart this pitching. Alternatively, in open-ocean waters, the after fins may
impart a simulated "squat" for the propellers to "bite" into slightly
denser water for the blades to work harder and push a small amount more
water (while the forward fins increase the draft amidships to smoothen the tendency to pitch in certain sea states), hence slight speed increase compared to not having fins. The fins are located at frames 251 and 336. Other ships may
experience better counter-squatting by having fins placed more forward
of the pivot point, or in the narrower area before the hull body
widens. However, this will displace either fuel or some equipment
traditionally located in those areas. But, depending on the ships' particular high speed, the depth of the shallow water,
and the sea state, the stern may depress as far as 8 to 10 feet below
normal. The propellers 25 feet below the waterline at deep draft and 20
feet below the waterline at light load. (Generally, recovering a helo
in these conditions would not be advisable until the ship reduces speed
or makes for deeper water.) The heavy length to beam ratio is 1:8.11864
and the light length to beam ratio is 1:8.11965.
-------------------------------------------------------
The CGHRD-1065 lacks stern flaps (which are present on USN DDG-51 hulls) for increasing cruising radius but they will be retrofitted when during the upgrade/alteration package or in the Flight II versions of this class.
Note: The Flight II ships are modifications for UNAUN and for some external navies that like the design. (Some major changes will be the relocation of AC plants, distillers, and other heavy equipment for essentially a rearrangement of some internal spaces near the amidships section; for others will be to add a fourth GTGS, which will be forward, and will require renumbering of the GTGSs. And, still, some interested navies intend to dispense with or relocate the GTGS located in the main engine rooms, and dispense with the reduction gear sets, the propeller shafts and rudders, replacing them with azimuthal propulsion pods.)
Also, the CGHRD-1065 hull is wider below the waterline than the DDG-51 hulls (enabling the hull to carry over 2,452 tons of DFM), and she has plenty of pitch control through use of her four tactical computer-controlled, independent,
active fin stabilizers (which the USN's ships lack (employing instead two fixed, long bilge keels), but which the Japanee Kongou class DDG-173 - DDG-176 the Atago DDG-177 and DDG-178 and follow-on ships have. (The DDG-173 and DDG-177 have a mid-ships-located pair of active fins but employ a fixed bilge keel forward of that section.)
As for the need to gradually alter the ship's aspect angle to the search radar of an inbound aircraft or missile, the ship would use the fins to impart heel, erratic, violent, or even highly oscillating behavior. If the fins are for jammed some reason, then counter-ballast can be used. The ships' tactical computer can call up numerous case studies (historical and mode/simulated) when switching between stabilizer (smoothing), destabilizer (violent and erratic), and heel (graduated deception) modes.
The pending upgrade/alteration package will include removal of the DDG-51-lookalike mast and replacement
of it with one similar to that on the CGHRD-1165 and the CGHRD-1278.
This alteration will also see the removal of the 4 cloned SPY-1/SPY-2
type radar faces since they are inferior and not redundant. The former transmitter and conditioning equipment space recovered will be allocated to other functions, or increased space for tactical staff requirements.
A few notable potential flaws exist:
- The twin torpedo magazines are situated outboard of the missile launcher
- The Number 2 GTGS too close to the starboard propeller shaft
- The two Tomahawk Equipment Rooms have not been reassigned to new uses (the Tomahawk is not generally exported by the US, and UNAUN has not morally defensible requirement nor any mission objectives requiring the such a missile

PERSONNEL BERTHING & ACCOMMODATIONS Personnel bunks are either 1-, 2- or 3- tier bunks, and may be located in 1-, 2- or multiple person, unisex cabins, staterooms, berthing compartments. Where possible, Enlisted berthing has bunk areas having sliding partitions to segregate their bunk cubicles from the main compartment. Annunciation systems are within each so that important alerts are less likely to be missed, although extremely exhausted personnel will on occasion miss even the loud General Quarters klaxon and therefore shipmates must check each cubicle and rouse those who might be late to their GQ stations.
CMC BERTHING As with Officers' Accommodations, the Chief Petty Officers have a galley for the preparation of individual and customized meals, separate from that provided for the Enlisted crew members.
MEAL ACCOUTERMENTS AND DIGNITY In UNAUN, unlike in many purportedly "advanced" navies, Sailors most certainly do not eat from "food trays". Converting the name of "Mess Specialists" to "Culinary Specialist" may improve the morale or image of the chefs who prepare meals for 350 to 439 people a day, but it doesn't mitigate the facts that many Sailors are fed fast-food and cattle-style. Such treatment creates a second-class citizenry, and although many navies tend to "reinvent" themselves every decade or so to give their taxpayers and potential recruits a feeling of modernity, the is no denying the fact that to feed Sailors from Fiberglas plates or dinnerware is not very different from prison-like or adolescent schooling environments. UNAUN has a higher regard for its Enlisted personnel. Enlisted personnel drink from glass vessels, not Fiberglas.
SANITATION FURNISHINGS OR FIXTURES There are a number sanitation-related enclosures, fixtures and devices, all of which are unisex. There are NO male-oriented "urinals" as such or used by Western persons. Many of the devices are the soap dispensers, hand-drying stations, and towel bars in the general head areas. There are numerous shower enclosures, lavatories, and wash basins as well as sanitation/hygiene basins in the lavatory enclosures themselves.
The sanitation compartments around the ship, mostly in the berthing compartments, are as follow:
16 washrooms ("toilets" in some Asian and other locations; "heads" in US naval parlance, "loo" in others),
41 showers,
25 lavatory sanitation/hygiene bowls,
31 lavatories, and
57 wash basins
serving a maximum accommodation of 439 berths.
Gray Water and Brown Water Human Sources. Meals, freshwater making, and brownwater and graywater waste management must take into account the number of personnel aboard at anytime, whether the ship is heading into port, or simply sailing around near coastal waters, whether or not the body sailed around has a political government, an exclusive economic zone (EEZ) or any environmental rules governing the presence of vessels). Without riders or supernumeraries requiring the use of extra bunks in the CO (Commanding Officer), XO (Executive Officer, CHENG (Chief Engineer) staterooms, and excluding the 32 personnel in the Special Detachment (SPECDET) which has 1 to 2 officers, there are 339 personnel aboard. When the staff personnel are entirely absent, 5 Officers, 1 CPO and up to 15 Enlisted personnel can be deducted, bringing the personnel count down to 318. And, when the flight department is entirely absent, another 23 personnel (4 Pilots/Officers, 1 CPO, and 18 Enlisted persons) are deducted, bringing the total to 295.
Personnel Laundry Facilities. The ship has three separate laundry systems. The first, in the upper superstructure, is for the exclusive use of the ships officers. The second is near the center of the ship and is for the Chief Petty Officers and the Enlisted personnel.
Officers' laundry facilities. UNAUN has decided that officers will wash and fold their own laundry, tend to their own bunk makeup, and serve themselves family-style from a buffet line. It is forbidden to set up a commissary system in which enlisted personnel are either ordered or tipped for rendering any type of servant, butler, steward, or personal-servitude-like functions. The officers of UNAUN are adults, and in this regard, UNAUN goes to the extreme of slapping in the face any other navy that utilizes enlisted personnel for others who need to personally manage their time better. However, Enlisted personnel from the Messing or "Culinary" department cook meals from a menu, or according to the meal of the day, based on command preference. Therefore, to minimize misgivings at the loss of "perks and entitlements accustomed to in their former "navies", officers aboard UNAUN ships are provided laundry facilities near the officers' staterooms. The laundry is first-come, self-service, with dryers stacked above the washers. This may come as a shock to UNAUN officers who arrive from prior service in the USN. During commission worthiness evaluation (the pseudo-equivalent of a naval academy), UNAUN officers wash and fold and stow their own laundry and are served by themselves in the dining hall. They are not officially told until arrival to their command that they are not accorded and are explicitly forbidden to solicit, pay for or otherwise obtain laundry-handling, dining, or other personal timesaving services from Enlisted personnel. Those who display the temerity to question this edict, or fail to adapt (seethe, hiss or carry themselves in a manner sullen or unbecoming of a UNAUN officer), are fully paid up to the date of separation (not the month or week), stripped of rank and any benefits only partially accrued, and then are summarily stripped from the command and deposited at the nearest civilian air or sea transport facility with a one-way, non-exchangeable, nonrefundable, time-restricted ticket back to their home of origin or home of record, whichever is the latest recorded in their service record.
Chief Petty Officers and Enlisted laundry facilities are Crew and self-service-based. The Crew Laundry is located forward, on the 4th deck. Laundry is dropped down a laundry chute. When the laundry is processed and ready for pickup, the laundry operators ring an annunciator to signal the respective compartments their laundry is ready for retrieval. They then reply and the laundry operators send up. Personnel from the after compartments (CPOs, Air Department, and EB4) must go forward to Main Deck laundry chute in front of Sick Bay to retrieve their laundry. Personnel in EB1, EB2, and EB3 are all located vertically, so they only need position themselves at the laundry chute lift doors in their respective berthing compartments. These personnel choose among themselves and post a schedule for the individual or team who will on a rotating basis collect and carry to the Crew Laundry the various soiled linens. Chiefs' laundry is processed on Wednesdays, while the remainder of the Enlisted laundry is processed on the other days of the week, one day for each berthing compartment.
When the Special Detachment and troops are aboard, their laundry is processed on Sunday or Saturday.
NOTE: the CGHRD-1065 is being deprecated by the CGHRD-1095, an interim design that uses the WR-21 propulsion plant and which has an internal and more functional internal arrangement. The CGHRD-1065 is being deprecated because UNAUN needs to have s distinctly different look, especially considering that Taiwan's and Korea's DDGs are as DDG-51 clone-heavy (at least externally) as is the CGHRD-1065. Also, because I (the designer) saw inspiration in a Russian power train arrangement, I had to quickly exploit down time to lay the sword aross the CGHRD-1065. In April 2006 I commenced the new design, and it is about 90% done as of mid-may. It needs to be inked and prepped for sales. Images will come when I consolidate one of these pages to free up space for the CGHRD-1095. Berthing compartments affording spaciousness (with a twist) for Enlisted personnel will be a hallmark of the -1095. Also, she includes a gym, a dedicated mosque/chapel/meditation compartment (HEY, this IS an international ship we're talking about..) And, the CGHRD-1095 will accommodate airframes up to the CH-47 dimension, but not the V-22 clones.
Fictionally, the CGHRD-1065 will exist in up to 10 to 14 examples (vice the fictional 30 hulls), but wil not bear out their anticipated and touted qualities as well as the CGHRD-1095, CGHRD-1165 and CGHID-1278 are expected to.
With the deprecation of the CGHRD-1065 and the introduction of the CGHRD-1095, officers get another "perk"-- they get their OWN laundry. But, they DO their own laundy, as well. Gone are the stewards of Officer Staterooms. (although they still cook and serve them in the wardrooms). But, there are aboard the CGHRD-1095 THREE sauna/jacuzzi suites-- one each for Officers, CPOs and Enlisted personnel. Any officer who survives commissioning and assignment to the Fleet and then who complains about having to do his or her own linens and rotate cleaning their own lavatories will be roundly drummed out of UNAUN on the second complaint.
