To expand upon this, the necessity of having more than one stern torpedo was one of the main issues that the Type VIIB addressed, along with the extra saddle tanks for fuel to increase the VIIA's range. Even with the reload, stern firepower was lacking, which helped prompt the adding of a tube on the Type IX boats.
