Transportowiec wojska typu Babia Góra 1899-1901 (3 szt.)
Teraz
bardzo potrzebne z powodu pozyskania nowych kolonii okręty, czyli transportowce wojska.
Każdy z nich jest w stanie przewieźć ok. 900 żołnierzy (mniej więcej batalion
piechoty z lekką artylerią) z pełnym uzbrojeniem, wyposażeniem i zapasami,
łącznie ok. 1350 t ładunku. Na krótszych dystansach ilość przewożonych
żołnierzy można zwiększyć. Zwróćcie uwagę na jego zasięg, umożliwia on
opłynięcie kuli ziemskie bez korzystania z kanałów z jednym tylko bunkrowaniem.
Transportowce będą wykorzystywane w czasie pokoju do „startowego” dostarczenia
wojska do kolonii i okresowej wymiany części personelu. W czasie wojny będą mogły
dostarczyć posiłki do kolonii lub przerzucić wojsko w dowolne inne miejsce w
razie takiej potrzeby. Uzbrojenie ma charakter wyłącznie obronny i nie
przewiduję wykorzystania okrętu w roli krążownika pomocniczego. W latach 1899-1901
zbudowano 3 jednostki, w czasie Wielkiej Wojny obyło się bez strat, zresztą nie
miały zbyt wielu okazji do aktywności.

Szybki stawiacz min typu Tryton 1901-1902 (2 szt.)
Przedstawiam
szybkie stawiacze min ukończone w latach 1901-1902, mogące być zakwalifikowane nawet
jako krążowniki minowe. W momencie wejścia do służby szybkość pozwalała im
uchylić się od walki z silniejszymi przeciwnikami (krążowniki, pancerniki), a
uzbrojenie dawało przewagę nad lżejszymi (niszczyciele, torpedowce). Dziś –
niestety – okręty nie zasługują już na epitet „szybkie” i za kilka lat czeka je
kasacja.

Kołobrzeg 1902-1904 (szt. 2)
Nieduże
krążowniki pancernopokładowe sprzed kilkunastu lat. W swoim czasie całkiem
przyzwoite jednostki, dziś już niestety przestarzałe. Pozwolimy im dożyć
ostatnich kilku lat; być może jeden z nich zostanie zaadaptowany tymczasowo na krążownik
szkolny. W latach 1902-1904 powstały 3 okręty tego typu, jeden z nich został
utracony w czasie Wielkiej Wojny.

Krążownik liniowy typu Jan III Sobieski 1902 (szt. 1)
Okręt
ten został zbudowany jako szybki pancernik i w 1902 roku na przymiotnik „szybki”
zasługiwał. Teraz można go klasyfikować najwyżej jako krążownik liniowy, a i to
mały i bardzo wolny. Projekt tej jednostki miał charakter trochę
eksperymentalny, okręt miał pełnić funkcje zbliżone do późniejszych krążowników
liniowych. Głównym jego zadaniem było zwalczanie nieprzyjacielskich krążowników
i wojna krążownicza. Nietypowym rozwiązaniem było umieszczenie części artylerii głównej w "wieżo-kazamatach", czyli w wieżach częściowo wbudowanych w nadbudówkę. Dało to możliwość zwiększenia ilości luf artylerii głównej, ale nie najlepsze kąty ostrzału. Nie wiem co z tym okrętem teraz zrobić, są chyba tylko dwa
wyjścia: albo będzie z niego hulk mieszkalny, albo mnóstwo żyletek. Na takim
samym kadłubie i z takim samym zespołem napędowym został zbudowany drugi „eksperyment”,
o którym poniżej.

Krążownik liniowy typu Władysław IV 1902 (szt. 1)
Jak
wspomniano wyżej, na takim samym kadłubie i z takim samym zespołem napędowym jak
poprzedni okręt, został zbudowany w tym samym roku drugi szybki pancernik. Ten
wariant mając mniej liczną, ale silniejszą artylerię główną mógł nawiązać walkę
z pancernikami wroga. Podobnie jak Jan
Władysław też się już zdeklasował, ale
mam dla niego lepsze perspektywy; przebuduję go na pancernik obrony wybrzeża i może
jeszcze kilkanaście lat posłuży.

Okręt podwodny typu Barrakuda 1910-1913 (5 szt.)
Pierwszy
polski typ okrętu podwodnego zdolnego do działania poza Bałtykiem. Z uwagi na
możliwe znaczne oddalenie od baz macierzystych, okręty wyposażone są w
stosunkowo silną radiostację. Typ charakteryzuje się również dużą prędkością,
praktycznie żaden obcy okręt tego okresu nie przekraczał 15 w. prędkości
nawodnej. Inspiracją dla jednostek tego typu był amerykański typ K z 1914 roku. W latach 1910-1913 przyjęto
do służby 8 jednostek tego typu, Wielką Wojnę przetrwało 5.
