I think we are about to rebuild all Russian torpedoes in LWAMI mod! I constantly hear your cry all the time because there is no reliable data about new Russian naval weapons.
I have already checked it out at the most reliable source: on Russian torpedo manufacturer's website! Probably the main difficulty for you is that these website is in Russian but don't worry guys..I speak Russian a little bit.


So...let's begin. Here you are data from "OAO Gidropribor" website, which is now the main producer of underwater weapons in Russia:

1. UGST heavyweight 533.4 mm torpedo - thermal propulsion, length 7.2 m, weight 2200 kg, warhead 300 kg of TNT, max. speed 50 kts or 35 kts (two settings), range 50 km, max. target depth 500 m, sonar range: 2.5 km active, 1.2 km passive, wake-homing sensor detects wake up to 6 minutes after ship's pass, wire-guidance: 25 km of wire on torpedo and additional 5 km of wire on ship.

2. UGST heavyweight torpedo with TPS-53 pump-jet module attached - all above data applies except: max speed 30 kts to 65 kts, max. range 60 km, and max. target depth 400 m.

3. MTT lightweight 324 mm torpedo - can be installed on surface ships, aircrafts and as a part of ASROC/SUBROC systems: thermal propulsion, 3.2 m length, weight 390 kg, warhead 60 kg of TNT schrapnel charge, max. speed 50 kts or 30 kts (two settings), max. range 20 km, max depth 600 m, active sonar range: 2.5 km above 200 m and 1.2 km below 200 m depth.
