Default Questions about homing/pattern running torpedoes

Attention



Hey folks,

I have a few questions in regards to Falke/Zaunkoning I/II torps.

A) For a shot to have a high probability of hitting the target with less chances of torpedo misses with any Acoustic torpedo, what should the AoB be??

B) the acoustic torpedo sometimes has to be launched astern but on conducting a port/starboard evasive maneuver, specially with incoming DD @ 15-33 knots, it can turn around and backfire, what is the least detectable speed by which I can conduct maneuvers without worrying about my fish eating my own back..

C) What is the minimum trigger (follow) speed for the Falke/Zaunkoning torps.

I understand that Zaunkoning I/II traverses 400 meters then the warhead becomes active and tracks the loudest sound, which is least must be .....Kt

D) If I fire 2 torps in succession, and I immediately shut the engines off, would the second home in on the first? and as a result, if I target a ship, would they both hit the same mark??

E) For Pattern running torpedoes, like FaT, and LuT, what is the best AoB setup for increasing hit versus incoming convoys,

and how should the boat be aligned in general when attacking a convoy using such torps?

Should I put the boat in between both lines??

Sorry for the exam style questions skippers.

Feedback is much appreciated..
