Speed is the most challenging technical problem in shipbuilding!
Historically, major shipyards have conducted various studies on this, and some ships have been able to break the 50-knot barrier!
For example, the United States' South Bay Company once developed a high-speed boat with a speed exceeding 100 knots!
However, strictly speaking, these "fast ships" cannot really be considered ships; they are more like watercraft, comparable in size to a canoe, and hold no reference value for modern shipbuilding.
Currently, a typical transport ship speeds around 15 to 20 knots, and as tonnage increases, the speed decreases.
Even military ships, like warships, have speeds around 30 knots.
Therefore, one can imagine the shocking impact when Park Renyong announces to the world through a live broadcast that ship speeds can be increased by 50%!
Describing it as "a worldwide sensation" is not an exaggeration.
A 50% speed increase!
