Torpedoes Descriptions

Torpedo type 95 mod 1

Propulsion:O2/steam|Speed:49/51-45 knots|Range: 12-9,0 km .
The standard torpedo of the IJN force. Steam powered, its fast but may be spotted by well trained enemy watchmen.A smaller version of the Type 93 developed for submarines. As per the Type 93, later versions had a more pointed head, giving a similar two knot increase in speed.

Torpedo type 96

Propulsion: O2/steam|Speed: 48/50 knots .|Range: 4,9 km .|Guidance: none .
This was a modified Type 95 Mod 1 torpedo developed because of troubles with the "first air vessel" in the former. Type 96 used 36% oxygen rather than pure oxygen to reduce starting problems.Steam powered Type 96 torpedoes also carry a larger warhead.

Torpedo type 92

Propulsion: electric|Speed: 30 knots .|Range: 7,0 km .
The design of this torpedo was inspired by the German Navy's successful one of World War I. In 1942 production started to supplement the Type 95 torpedoes.The new electrical torpedo entering service, it is wakeless but slower than the type 95 mod 1. Many captains have reported initial trouble with them, so there might be some teething problems.

Torpedo type 92 mod 2

Propulsion: electric|Speed: 30 knots .|Range: 7,0 km .
A newer and cheaper version of the Type 92 .wakeless torpedo. Its more reliable and has received the addition of the top-secret magnetic influence detonator.

Torpedo type 92 mod 3 / hypotetical based on real research

Propulsion: electric .|Speed: 30 knots .|Range: 7,0 km .|Guidance: none .
A torpedo intended to be launched from the stern tube to attack pursuing escorts and, following an initial ‘offset’ course change, take either a long loop .or a circle course .

Type 92 accoustic 1 / hypotetical based on real research

Propulsion: electric|Speed: 20 knots .|Range: 7,0 km .|Guidance: acoustic homing.A passive acoustic homing torpedo, it will track the target on its own. The slow speed makes it useless against anything but merchants.

Type 92 accoustic 2 / hypotetical based on real research

Propulsion: electric .|Speed: 30 knots .|Range: 7,0 km .|Guidance: passive acoustic homing .
An improved version of the accoustic homing torpedo, it can track escorts as well as merchants. The torpedo starts "listening" after travelling 400m .. It is recommended to dive and silence the boat after launching.

Type 94 mod 2 / hypotetical based on real research of aircraft torpedo

Propulsion: Walterturbine .|Speed: 45 knots .|Range: 12 km .
A torpedo powered by the revolutionary kerosene, oxygen and sea water propulsion mixture, it will give you long range shots without sacrifing speed.

Type 92 accoustic 3 / hypotetical based on real research

Propulsion: electric .|Speed: 30 knots .|Range: 7,0 km .|Guidance: passive acoustic homing .
An accoustic torpedo less prone to be fooled by the decoys towed by British escorts.

Torpedo type 95 mod 2

Propulsion: O2/steam .|Speed: 47/51 knots .|Range: 8,2/6 km .|Guidance: none . A slightly improved Type 95 version, trading a shorter range for a much larger explosive charge. As per the Type 93, later versions had a more pointed head, giving a similar two knot increase in speedA shorter range for a higher punch.

Torpedo type 92 mod 3 / hypotetical

Propulsion: electric .|Speed: 30 knots .|Range: 7,0 km .|Guidance: none . A slightly improved version, trading a shorter range for a much larger explosive charge. The Type 92 mod 3 .is built on the wakeless Type 92 .. This is the wakeless euivalent of the Type 95 mod 2.


enjoy !
