Revolutionary fresh look on ships' design

Dear gentlemen!

Please, permit me to present you a revolutionary fresh look on ships’ design.
It allows a heavy warship of 75-150 km/h instead of ordinary 55 km/m with the same displacement and higher power. It allows a supertanker of your last design (30 km/h, so 14 days for 10.000 km long) to be substituted by single ship of 30 times less DWT, and 30 times quicker, about 120,000 kW, and sufficiently cheaper OPEX.

It can be effective used for cheapest delivery: fresh agriculture products, oil, natural gas without its liquefying, other mass cargo for a long distance and up to 900 km/h, and as a military quick response. 

Really:
Surface ships’ and submarines’ power consume is proportional to cube of their speed V m/s
(1) W ~ V^3 = k * V^3 * B (beam) * H (draft) (kW),
while my concept’s power is proportional to the speed
(2) W ~ V = V * H^2 * B (kW)

Indeed:
For that purpose, its nose is tilted back from its lowest point to highest one, and the ship is submerged, while its roof is near to the sea level.
The ship’s nose as a wedge pushes the front water upward to the air, because the water can be considered as incompressible and continuous medium in our case, so
(3) W = Q (m3/s) * H (meters of water column) (kW)
(4) Q = B * H * l (nose length) / (l / V) =B * H * V
Combining (3) and (4), it gives (2)

Moreover, additional loses of that ship can and must be relatively negligible by using a pressed air cocoon around the sides and the bottom.  It is not sophisticated, but routine designer work, had been made by me too.

q (kWh / ton-km) = W (kW) / (G (displacement, m^3) * V (km/h)) can be considered as a OPEX.
In our case
(5) q =  H / (3.6 * L (m)), i.e. depended on H-to-L ratio only and q = about 0.015 or less, and not depended on a ship speed !!! (Here, L – is an effective length of a ship).
So q = 0.012 kWh/ ton-km approximately, or 1.5 USA cents/10 ton-km or even much less.
