Mission
This ship is meant to be a hunter.

At dusk or in poor weather, a division of 4 will will start a sweep at 22knots, seeking a way around the enemy battle line, seeking suport ships, tankers, or carriers. The 165mm guns are expected to be effective at closer ranges of night or weather.

The range, to support this plan, is immense, with a 19.0% fuel fraction, which is very high.That is however the upper end of what I find 'reasonable'.

Years ago I simmed empty USN WWII hulls, and came up with the idea that 19% fuel seems about the upper end of what they had. So I use 20% as a limit for my ships.

Overtake
Conceptually, if steaming at 22knots cruise, and meeting a vessel steaming at 14knots cruise, there would be a +8 knot advantage.

Assuming the ship traveling 14knots was steaming directly away, and immediately went to flank speed when the range was 21km and the mast tops were visible, but not the hull.

A carrier turning to launch, or a ship delaying flank speed, or if the Parthians are charging towards a spot, and they close faster. The same math works for them escaping as well.

Assuming both ships gained 1 knot per 2 minute turn, (aka non-Destroyers), it would take 38 minutes for the 14knot to hit 33knots (if they can) and slowly pull away.

In that time, the Pouseki would have closed 4.7nm or
7.425km, down to 13.5km. At that range the 165mm can cause a fair amount of damage. With A, B and S1,2,3 &4 bearing, 8 guns firing.

A ship moving 34knots would have a 2 knot advantage, and be able to pull away slowly, but would take an hour to reach 17km, and 2 hours to reach 20km. During which time a hail of 165mm hits may adversely effect performance.

Weaponry
From 1929.5 to 1931.0 the 165L55 is developed.
I thought I developed the 165L47, but looking at my turnsheets, it was L55.

With 1925 Tech, a 165L55 firing a 67.11 normal or *20% overwieght shell
is possible. 67.11 * 1.2 = 80.53kg as maximum shell weight.
Parthia considers 80-90kg the maximum reasonable handloading,
and a 165 firing a 80kg seems more compact than a 180L45,
and has better sectional density.

Power assist for loading/ramming/training is provided (10% main armanent weight), like the British 7.5".

The main armament is
C (E)
A (B) Y
D (F)

Centerline are 2-gun, flanking guns are singles
Giving 8 guns forward, 8 broadside and 4 aft

Which is a good chase armament

Brooklynn was 18.77m for a 3T 6", so +2.25m for 4g 165?
Speed is less, so length for machinery is less, allowing the turrets closer to 'center'.

The Bahktiari class would replace the Royal Nisseans in production.

The 165L47 fires an 80kg shell vs. the older 180mm with 85kg shell.
The smaller cross-section means it carried KE better than the 180mm, for
similar or better penetration.
The turret arrangement allows high long term sustained fire.

Spotting range for shell splashes for N7 was set at 1km per CM,
so the 165mm can be spotted out to 16.5km, while the 180 can be to 18km, and the Byzantien to 19.1km.

This does make a small 2.6km distance where the Byzantines could shell spot, and the Parthian 165mm could not. In this range, the armor should be enough to ensure no critical htis at these ranges.

Scenarios
A ) Aerial spotting, night, or poor weather...all mean spotting range irrelevant.

B ) Worst Case : the Parthian is chasing the Byzantine. At that point the 1-2 knot overtake speed mean the Parthian would have to spend the combat where the Byzantine can target better....or the Parthian could just linger at 20-21km, and neither would have spotting.

C ) Tables are turned, Byzantine is chasing...the Parthian is faster, chooses range

D ) Byzantine turns broadside, closing speed balloons to 20-30 knots, can speed through the splash zone to where 165mm splashes count, turn shortly after and exchange telling shots.
Armor should be enough to prevent critical hits at outer ranges anyhow.

E) Parthian is fighting IJN ship. The IJN trades armor for speed, but has about the same guns. Which means if they fight, I'll punch holes in them before they punch holes in me.

   Good seaboat, rides out heavy weather easily

Initially termed a 'Light Armored Cruiser' due to it's size and guns,
the classification was changed to Cruiser prior to launch.
