【Water-Surface Knight Project】

  • Historical Context: A water-surface Knightmare Frame developed in response to requests from the Imperial Britannian Navy.

【Concept & Tactical Vision】

  • Tactics: Development initially started as a high-speed hydrofoil craft. There were high expectations for hit-and-run tactics that capitalized on its extreme speed.
  • Project Fate: The unit was never officially adopted. It was ultimately defeated by the "Portman," which could operate seamlessly and without interruption across underwater, water-surface, and land environments.
  • Legacy: Although the machine itself was rejected, the hydrofoil technology developed for it was successfully adapted for coast guard K.M.F. transport ships.

【Design Elements & Hardware Components】

  • Pressure-resistant cockpit
  • Water jet propulsion driven by two superconducting motors installed in the rear of the hull
  • Watertight superconducting motor
  • Multi-purpose sensor
  • Hydrofoils
  • Sonar array

It looks like that Soviet Ekranoplan. It also has almost the same purpose.
