The prototype is for a 4' mini ramp with deck. Each section is 8' wide and has one transition. Four such sections, welded together, would make a 16' wide mini ramp with 10' flat-bottom. The prototype drawing could be modified to make a spine ramp or to add bowl corners. The prototype could also be modified to make a taller mini ramp or vert ramp.

Three flat shapes form the bottom of the aircraft (slightly inclined front, flat middle, and sharply raised back), and eight form the top (one large downwards-sloping rear section, one thin nose section, and three inclined side panels per side).
Some modern patrol vessels are equipped with a stern launching ramp, or simply launching ramp, for deploying smaller rescue or pursuit boats without requiring the parent ship to first come to a halt.
