SBW Pax Naval
Eight detailed modern ships for Superb Warfare: frigate, corvette, submarine, patrol boat, landing craft, RHIB, cargo ship and canal barge.
Pax Naval is an addon for Superb Warfare that adds eight detailed modern ships, both warships and merchant vessels. They have walkable decks, real Superb Warfare weapons, a damage and sinking system, and a dry dock where ships are built step by step.
Ships
| Ship | Role | Highlights |
|---|---|---|
| Frigate (64 × 9 blocks) | Multi-role warship | Naval gun, 30 mm close-in weapon, cruise and anti-air missile cells, helicopter deck, fire-control computer, boarding ladders |
| Missile corvette (47 × 7) | Fast escort | 76 mm gun, 8 vertical anti-air missiles, 2 quad anti-ship launchers, 30 mm CIWS, flight deck |
| Attack submarine (52 × 4.5) | Stealth strike | Dives and holds a set depth, periscope view, torpedoes, vertical cruise-missile silos, active sonar |
| Coast guard patrol boat (30 × 6) | Patrol and policing | 30 mm turret, 12.7 mm machine gun, walkable interior (corridors, stairs, glazed bridge) |
| Landing craft (LCU) | Amphibious transport | Bow ramp, carries Superb Warfare and Immersive Vehicles cars and tanks, troops disembark on the beach |
| Interceptor RHIB (11 blocks) | Commando / customs | Very fast, 12.7 mm machine gun, flashing lights and siren |
| Coastal cargo ship (36 × 9) | Merchant trade | 102-slot hold, containers on deck |
| Canal barge (28 × 4.5) | Inland trade | Hold, crew quarters, varnished wheelhouse |
Features
- Walk on deck: every ship has collision boxes that follow the hull. Players stay on board while the ship turns, and helicopters can land on flight decks.
- Real weapons: turrets, guns and missiles use Superb Warfare's own models and ammunition.
- Fire control: enter coordinates (or use the Superb Warfare designator), pick the weapon, number of rounds and spread, then fire. The gun computes its own ballistic solution.
- Damage and sinking: below 30 % health a ship lists, slows down and smokes. At 0 % it takes on water for 40 seconds and sinks to the seabed with its cargo, which can still be recovered from the wreck.
- Anchor and cruise control: drop anchor in up to 48 blocks of water, or set a constant speed for long crossings.
- Dry dock: ships are built in a dry dock basin over several real-time hours (4 h for the barge, 15 h for the frigate, configurable). The dock office screen shows the ship on the slipway, a progress bar and the remaining time, then the basin floods for launch.
- Server-friendly: lightweight models and an optimized water check make large ships 2 to 3 times cheaper for the server.
