Notes on class
The T class were the designed as replacements for the O, P and R class boats. There size (1325 tons) was kept down to allow more hulls to be built within the tonnage restrictions of the London Treaty. In common with the S class boats they had a very powerful torpedo armament, carried all their fuel internally and were constantly being improved throughout the war.
Boats specifically intended for the far east had extra fuel tanks fitted to increase the range. The specifications as given above is for the first group.
The first T class submarine to be completed, HMS Triton had a slightly different displacement; 1095 / 1579 BRT.
At least two boats from the first group,
HMS Tigris and HMS Torbay, had an external stern torpedo tube fitted giving them 11 torpedo tubes. They also carried an extra torpedo. Further specifications for the later groups;
2nd Group;
Same as the first group except;
Complement: 61 men
Armament
1 4\" gun
3 MG AA
11 21\" torpedo tubes (6 bow, 2 bow external, 2 amidships external firing aft, 1 stern external)
17 torpedoes
3th Group;
Same as the first group except;
Complement: 61 men
Armament:
1 4\" gun
1 20mm AA
3 MG AA
11 21\" torpedo tubes (6 bow, 2 bow external, 2 amidships external firing aft, 1 stern external)
17 torpedoes
The
GFX model suits both the second and third groups, the first one will need 3d modifications to get two more tubes firing forward and to remove the aft tubes.
Due to the actual number of tubes limitation (10 tubes) even if we get all forward tubes (8) working, we'll only get 2 aft tubes with a working TBT (mod version 1.6), version 1.91 of mod has 3 but using the TBT causes CTD, otherwise it works fine.
