View Full Version : Detonation distance of a typical torpeo
I'm asking this more for my project than DW but anyways:
What is the typical detonation range of a typical torpedo....for example if it has a magnet fuse....a couple of meters?

Most anti surface torpedoes are contact detonated, but they're designed to travel underneath the ship and break its keel.
ASW torpedoes tend to be contact detonated as well, but they're designed to create a bubble on the side of the hull that couples to it and punches a hole through cavitation.
