German to ijn torpedoes

keltos01 · 03-18-08, 02:17 AM

Hello,
I've been playing for a couple days now with a ixd2 sub euipped with german torpedoes that have the effeciency of the japanese ones at the time, and I still don't understand why the japs didn't make more of theirs subs given the excellent weapon they had. My next goal is to make a new torpedo that could be used on the german side along with the german torpedoes, so that when our Jyunsen B sub is ready she will have her own torps !
I hope in the meantime you enjoy this mod, sunk a King George Battleship in Freemantle from 11000 yards yesterday... Keltos01

Japanese aerial torpedo type 97 was an excellent weapon

compared the USN's early torp models
Japanese "Long lance"-610 mm torpedo was a superb weapon

, but it could be used only by cruisers and modern DD

But, to be honest, i dont know any detail about the 533 jap torpedo...

...it was used in all the submarines and older destroyers, but I cannot compare it with the german G7 model

Post some descriptions
