†In table IA endurance and radius are based on maximum capacity (95%).
Conversion factors:
Diesel oil: 314 gallons=1 ton. Fuel oil: 277 gallons=1 ton. Diesel oil and fuel oil: 42 gallons=1 barrel.
Table IA.--War Logistics Data for Steady Steaming
Based on Maximum Capacity (95%)*[Note: Fueling beyond the radius oil capacity increases radius at the expense of resistance to udnerwater damage. Thisx table is made available to the commander asx a supplement to table I Ifor use when increased radius and decreased resistance to underwater damage are factors in a decision.]
