This is a really fascinating and invaluable document for anyone interested in USN engineering and range data, as it provides actual, in-service fuel, consumption rates in both tabular and nomogram format, for a variety of displacements and fuel load formats.
It also gives the estimated maximum speed at full power for the vessels listed (which is almost every ship in the fleet)!!!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!
Many thanks to the HyperWar team for this data!!!
