The G1 got a range of 12000 at slow 7500 at medium speed and 5000 at fast.
the electrical one only got a 5000 meter range.

G1 11000 yards.
Randomly fired into a convoy in '45 (and yes, suicidal), and tried to high tail it. While sinking at 200M, I heard i sunk a large merchant. |

By the way, isn't the real range of the type II 5 km? The game has it at 3 km, any way to fix this? |

4000m on a passenger cargo with my last stern tube torpedo. One eel, one kill. Hit perfectly at point of aim (under her stack), using a fast G7a (calm seas, so didn't want to give her EXTRA time to react to the torpedo that was coming from 4km away!).
100% realism, manual targeting. I was surprised that I actually hit it. AOB was calculated with Mk.I eyeball, speed was calculated with fixed wire method. Hitman Optics for my scopes.

Designated targets, observed hits please.
Wild shooting at convoys occasionally produce hits but mostly wastes expensive torpedoes. That's luck not skill. Gotta learn how to take screenshots |

The longest shot I have ever connected with was about 6500m in '39. I observed the dud bounce right off the hull of the target, dose that count? If not then it would have to be between 4500 and 3500km. The target was evaiding so it is hard to say for sure how far off it was exactly. |
