German tanker Spessartlarger figure on 1 of 3
ROCS Cheng Holarger figure on 2 of 3
Counts only measures both sources give with the same scope. A larger figure is not a better system.
Measured figures
at 12 knots (22 km/h; 14 mph)
Single source3,250 nmi (6,020 km; 3,740 mi) at 12 knots (22 km/h; 14 mph)[source]
Bars compare reported quantities only. A larger figure does not make a system better; configurations and test conditions differ.
