The figures in my last post don't add up either.

The Tench (430 CBM) 16,000NM, with the Balao (357 CBM) 11,000 NM, we have a difference of 73 CBM of fuel. So in theory, 73 Cubic meters translates to 5,000 NM range

Here i have to stare at myself in the mirror and ask, "REALLY?!"
If 73 cubic meters of fuel is enough to travel 5,000 NM, then going by that, then 146 CBM is enough to travel 10,000 miles? So where did the rest of the 200 some odd CBM go if looking at the balao?
Seriously, if 70 CBM of diesal = 5,000 miles of travel then, by that logic a balao could travel 25500 NM.
I suck at math and theory crafting.
