Ship Speed in Database

[Mabuse]

I just had a look at some ships in the database and was wondering why I can't find
information about the maximum speed of the vessels.

Is it me or is there no such data in the database? And if not, how is this modeled
in the game?

Select unit, press F2. You'll notice the different throttle settings.

True, but why is there no entry in the database? Especially since when you have a group of different top-speed units, F2 only seems to show the highest speed of the fastest unit (which btw makes it kinda hard to keep a formation as the "slow to keep in formation" doesn't always seem to work if you are trying to haul the mail). If there was an option to show the "best speed" of the group on the F2 page, that would be extremely useful to me.

Yes, that was my question. Is there no ship or aircraft speed information in the database and when not how is this modeled in the game. Where get the game
the max speed of the ships from? Or is this generic?
