Tell us what values you entered for USET-95.
I used the Janes info quoted by Amizaur that you linked to me. 30kts, 12801m.
Speed is good but it seems to me range is too long. We don't know what type of SET torp was labeled by Soviets as USET-95 for export. Note that basic SET-40 torp has 8000 yds range at 28 kts and modernized SET-72 variant almost 14000 yds at 30 kts. I really doubt Soviets could extend its range by 75% and improve speed simultaneously!
14000yds = 12801m. It's cited by Janes, which I consider reliable.
