Hello Wolves,

Does anyone know what the general speed (in knots) are for magnetic torpedos at their respective settings of slow, medium, and fast?

Is it something like:
Slow = 20 kts?
Med = 35 kts?
Fast = 45 kts?

Im thinking that if I know what those speeds are, and knowing the range from sub to target, then I should be able to calculate the time to impact using the stopwatch, yes?


Thank you,
dog
