Something very familiar

[Michael_A]

Has anyone checked out the new Popular Science story on trimaran ships for the U.S. Navy?

They look oddly familiar like something out of Wing Commander. If you haven't checked it out you won't know what I'm talking about but if you have please give us your opinion.

New? There was an article in PopSci nearly a year ago about it. Have they done a follow-up recently?

yea they came out with a new article for the september 2001 issue, which I have right now. One of the ships that apparently is on the drawing boards for the USN has 2 rail guns. BUt if the ships lost the center main hull they would be reminicent of the catamiran that was the intrepid before UE destroyed it.

UE can't destroy anything - the Intrepid will still be there unless Origin chooses to do something about it.
