Unrelated question: was there such a thing as external torpedo tube?

The French used a sub with external tubes, however they can't be reloaded, and the ones they used first sat on the deck, then swung down to the sides of the hull on hinges to be fired, making them fairly inaccurate. This was, of course, before the world wars, and the submarine had an odd design to begin with. It was the Morse class, in case you want to look it up. The Gymnote may have used the same launchers as well, but I'm not sure.
