Flank speed is a nautical term referring to a ship s true maximum speed, beyond the speed that can be reached by traveling at full speed. Usually, flank speed is reserved for situations in which a ship finds itself in imminent danger, such as coming under attack by aircraft. Flank speed is very fuel inefficient and often unsustainable because of engine overheating issues. For example, the most economic speed of the Littoral combat ship is convert 20 kn lk in providing a range of convert 4300 nmi lk in ref http www.globalsecurity.org military systems ship lcs specs.htm Global Security LCS specs ref , and endurance of 215 hours. This ship has a flank speed of convert 50 kn but can only travel convert 1500 nmi at flank speed, exhausting its fuel in 30 hours. Thus, its flank speed consumes fuel over seven times faster than most economic. Other speeds include one third , two thirds , standard , and full . One third and two thirds are the respective fractions of standard speed. Full is greater than standard, but not as great as flank. Emergency may not be any faster than flank, but indicates the ship should be brought up to maximum speed in the shortest possible time. ref cite book title Watch Officer s Guide A Handbook for All Deck Watch Officers author James Stavridis, Robert Girrier publisher Naval Institute Press page 146 ref In surface ship nuclear marine propulsion , the differentiation between full speed and flank speed is of lesser significance, because these machines can be run at or very near their true maximum speed for virtually unlimited periods of time. ref http www.navweaps.com index tech tech 028.htm Speed Thrills III Max speed of nuclear powered aircraft carriers , Stuart Slade, 1999 ref In US Nuclear Submarine propulsion, full speed is 50 reactor power.
