Talk about surprise !!
How often do MK14 torpedoes perform this erratically ? Or is this normal behaviour ?

Never witnessed that type of erratic before. Circular runs, gyro failures which cause them to head for wrong bearing but none of the snaking lol. Wonder what they did in FOTRS? I am curious as I've spent a lot of time in TMO working on making early war torpedoes unreliable as they were.
That is sadly somewhat normal behavior for MK 14 from 1941-early 1943. Circular runs remained a problem the entire war.
