Can't HIT the broadside of a barn with a truck

Anyone know of a way to get late war torps earlier than their actual historical date? Think I might need some late war torps with homing features.

What are the latest model of homing torps and how good do they work in game?

You can change default torpedo loadout for use in career and single mission.

I tried something a bit different and it worked....LOL

Using a hex editor I simply switched the Type 0 (TI) with the Type 9 (latest homing torp). A simple matter of copy and paste. Now my game thinks that Type 9 (latest homing torp) is a T0 (TI). They work beautifully in game and I almost never miss. It's just a simple matter of ajusting the depth that you want the torp to be at, meaning setting it to run at a shallower depth for small boats(tugs, small merchants, etc.) and setting them to a depth of 4 or 5 for larger ships (T2, T3, Cargos, Cruisers, etc..) Not quite as effective as the American modern day Mk48 ADCAP since I can not guide these little fish, but still they home in on prop blades and circle around until they hit something.

WARNING!
Surgeon General states that using homing torps in earlier war periods than what was actually factual can take away from your gaming experience and may lead to severe depression and cause you to smoke.
