Woot! This is a first priority ship to get AI torpedos working on it :up: Good work as always, I think in most ways your ships are better quality than the stock ones.

A ship wish and Miner does the rest !

ClassPT (Patrol/Torpedo Boat)

Armaments
AA Weapons: 13mm/76 machine gun, 5"/50 dual-purpose gun

Artillery: 5"/50 dual-purpose gun

Torpedoes: Torpedo tubes x2

Depth Charges: Depth Charge Rack x1

Speed 50 knots

The Japanese have a variety of small coastal vessels that provide a similar role to the U.S. Elco PT boat. The Japanese versions are not as fast or manoeuvrable as the Elco, but they do mount a 5" dual-purpose main gun that packs a punch against both air and surface targets. In addition they also mount machine guns, depth charges, and torpedoes, meaning they can pose a threat to any target.

Bravo for this new boat class you made available for SH4 !

ps I already downloaded the mod, could we use it for the coming IJN Campaign with all credits given off course ?

[miner1436]

Thanks guys:up: Yes i left out the big gun, after comparing the BSM ship to real life Gyoraitei boats I made a few changes, speed reduced to a more realistic 33.5 Kt *based on real infromation* and I never saw a deck gun on one during my image search so I left that out too. You have my permission to use it in the IJN campaign.:up:

awesome work!!

[captgeo]

Great work (again, and again) Miner:yeah:

Excellent screenshot.

[keltos01]

At least now people will really take those PT boats into account ! I use to hammer at patrol craft with my DG and AA, guess now I'll think twice before doing that ;)

rockets and torpedoes, what next ? my long awaited air-dropped mk 24 fido ?

keltos

ps do you have a screenshot showing the effect on the sub ?

they all undershoot lol

[keltos01]

Do you happen to have a single mission where we can try it or did you cruise till you met one ?

Next idea :

AA rockets for IJN ships (1944)

ship to ground rockets for both US and IJN ships

keltos

btw thank for the screenshot, a picture is worth a 1000 words

[Akula4745]

[Werewolf]

is it still possible to download this boat?

[propbeanie]

There's a PT boat in
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/downloads.php?do=file&id=779

I didn't pay any attention to which one...

The AI torps might have to be found elsewhere...
