comparative damage on a Clemson DD of both french torpedoes. I set the M26V to half the power of the 24V since it only has 144 kg TNT instead of 310 kg TNT.


This mod intends to mod two types of french torpedoes of WWII : the 21 inch and the 14 inch torpedoes, the latter were used in swivel mounts found under the deck of various french submarines and had very little hitpower.

Interesting, but is there any historical background on using them in allied subs? Or is this a fantasy mod? Just curious :)

the ever challenging knight strikes again ! vade retro Dom Quijote !

I might just get the Surcouf model soon... ;)

I need to figure out how to make swiveling torpedo tubes then :o

I will use the M26V in the external non reloadable 15 inch torpedo tubes, I am currently trying to make a new weapoon of that tube, and the 24V in the bow tubes...

Then I'll need a turret with twin guns...

Hey, that was a really polite way of saying "That pestering bastard again" :har:

Good to know you are thinking of bringing the Surcouf fully to life :up:
