Discussion of designs that have represented major step forward in achieving truly high powered controllable pitch propeller capability, principally hydraulically actuated type, with particular reference to propellers for ships of U S Navy; it is suggested CP propeller should minimize weight and size effects on overall ship, and this aspect is shown in diagrams and comparisons; hub and control coupling has been designed for 40,000 shp but can be installed and tested on one of 35,000 shp DE-1040 Class or DE-1052 Class of ships with minimum of changes; some changes that have been avoided but probably required with larger, longer heavier hub are noted.
