    The Warship is a versatile, straight-flying midrange driver that can go the distance. This is the only midrange disc currently in the Westside lineup that is fast enough to be classified as a fairway driver. When thrown with power, the Warship has a small degree of high-speed turn followed by minimal low-speed fade.

    I know I already reviewed this disc a few years ago, but since then they have released this disc in a ton of different plastics. 

    First and foremost, this is my main midrange. I currently bag 3 of the in different plastics that cover all shots I'd need a midrange for, except the significantly overstable shots. Currently I bag one in Chameleon VIP-X plastic, one in Chameleon VIP plastic, and one in tournament plastic that is really beat in. Overall, I feel in general the Warship feels like a beadless Roc, but with significantly more glide and a little more speed. Generally speaking the turn and fade can change pending on plastic, but you can achieve a range of somewhat understable to fairly overstable flights with a brand new (not seasoned) Warship. 

    The VIP-X Chameleon Warship is the most overstable Warship I bag, but by no means is it a meat hook. No matter how hard I throw it, it will fade. If put on an anhyzer line it will ride the anhyzer line for a while, but will always fight out of it. When thrown flat, it will go straight for a long time but it will finish with a predictable fade. When thrown flat into a fairly significant headwind it will turn over some, but always come out of it and fade out when it loses speed. Thrown hyzer, this disc rides hyzer the entire flight. I'd rate this (5.5, 5, 0, 2)

    The VIP Chameleon Warship when thrown flat in lower winds will turn a little bit, but fade out and eventually land dead straight. VIP Moonshine plastic is about the same level of stability as the Chameleon VIP, and normal VIP plastic is just a hair less overstable than it's Chameleon or Moonshine counterparts. I'd rate regular VIP Chameleon (5.5, 5.5, -0.5, 1)

    Tournament Warships are a fair amount less overstable than any variation of the VIP plastics, but it will still start fading at the end of the flight and finish right of center (RHBH). However, when you beat in a tournament Warship it will turn into a midrange that slowly and controllable turn the entire flight. I'd rate a new tournament Warship (5.5, 5.5, -1, 1), but the current beat Tournament Warship I would rate a (5.5, 5.5, -2, 1)

    Origio Warships are easily the least stable of any plastic this disc is offered in. When it's new, an Origio Warship will turn pretty hard, and start to flatten out by the end of the flight. Honestly I feel new Origio Warships fly like a new VIP Tursas (Tursas are rated 5, 5, - 3, 1), and only lose stability the more beat in they become.

    Overall, this is a great mold that can be the only midrange mold you use without compromising on the flights you can get from it. As a bonus, the Tursas uses the same top mold and feels very similar to the Warship in your hand if you need something a little less stable than the Warship can offer you.

    I actually found this disc (with no name or number) in the woods and have tried to incorporate it into my game. It was very beat in when I found it and as such has quite a bit more turn than the original flight numbers. I tent to throw this flat or on anhyzer to get big sweeping left to right shots with my backhand. It holds the line very well with only a little pan out at the end. Certainly a situational disc in my bag, but when I need it, it feels good in the hand and has a nice easy release to a reliable flight.

    VIP Plastic, 170 grams

    The Warship is a high speed midrange with tons of glide and very little fade. Ideal for low ceiling shots where you need the disc to stay a few feet above the ground for as long as possible. Very straight disc that will predictably not fade on a committed shot. Great feel in the hand, would recommend for any level of player. If you are a player that loves throwing putters off the box, the Warship is the next step for more distance with the same reliable finish.

    This is a great fast speed mid range hybrid of a disc. It's a beefy rim much like a latitude 64 Fuse or Discraft Commet but had a wider flight top that makes for nicely in the hand with a power grip. For a beginner this would be an instant recommendation for a form testing disc that's going to also work on improving range and accuracy. It's got a decent amount of turn, despite a zero rating, because of its ability to hold any line, but will have a little stability and finish work a tiny bit of fade in case you get too crazy with power or an anhyzer release. For a higher level player to is a great disc to use for shot shaping, especially on tight wooded courses or where you need the speed and flexing of a fairway but don't want to power down the throw. I bag several: classic VIP, VIP moonshine, and a new one I'm Westside hybrid plastic.
