TDC Torpedo Data Computer

[skirich]

I found this on the internet which has a pretty cool writeup of the TDC.
I've been blessed to have the chance to visit the Growler (SS-577), Pampanito, Nautilus and Bowfin and taken pictures beside each of these computers.


I never really understood how complex they were and how they worked until I read this ...

USS Pampanito's TDC is fully restored and operational again, this video talks about what the TDC does and shows you some neat guts.
