Well, a full TBT would be wrong to the extent it connected to a TDC. The TBT alone is just binos with a bearing. PT boats did have a torpedo director, which was a way to know the target bearing.

So reuse the TBT, but don't hook it to a TDC. All torpedos would then go off on a 0 degree gyro setting.

So all it would do is give you a bino view with bearing (assuming they had the big binos on a mount).
