Torrent II - Heavy SAR Hydrofoil
WIP – My first Workshop upload. Be kind! Suggestions very welcome.
[hr]
⚛ Nuclear Hydrofoil Rapid Response / Support Ship ⚛
[hr]
[b]Overview[/b]
A nuclear-powered hydrofoil support vessel designed for rapid response, rescue, and high speed, long-duration operations - no stopping to charge batteries or needing to refuel.
It’s NOT cost-efficient if you are playing career, but it will run forever and remain stable at high speeds even in rough seas.
Yes — the interior colors are ugly. I know. But I like it! 😅

[b]Performance[/b]
[list]
[*] 🚀 Top Speed: ~100 knots weather permitting
[*] 🌊 Stable at max speed in fairly high seas
[*] 💰 Cost: 500k+ to purchase
[*] ⚙ Waterjet steering / hydroplane control
[*] 🚤 x3 Waterjet
[*] 💨 x4 Small Prop Thrusters
[*] ⚡ x20 Large Batteries (6 per jet, 2 for systems & control)
[*] ⚛ ~2 mins to full reactor power once on - 25000kw
*Torrent II has a DEEP keel so be aware in shallow waters - also doing 90 knots
you will smoke bridges - slow down to go under!*

[b]WIP Notes[/b]
• Work in progress!
• 100% throttle with low batteries or low reactor output may result in odd electrical behavor!
• Full speed cannot be attained without waiting for the reactor to start generating!
• Vehicle hangar door sometimes needs a nudge from the crane to open, will fix!
• Crane boom extension sometimes goes jenky - turning mags on and off seems to correct it
• Interior colors need improvement maybe I dunno let me know!
• Backup generator underpowered, but problably not needed anyways.
• Water Cannon is weak, it functions but needs some work
• Logic needs to be centralized, I will likely make a controller for it
• Properly isolated electrical systems with breakers to be added
• More cosmetic and interior work, it's pretty bare bones.
• Feedback welcome!
I will list all mods used and proper names eventually and update it if people like it!
