Default [REL] French Torpedoes Mod M26V (15.75") and 24V (21.65")


the two types of french torpedoes on board my S18



24V fired at a 35 knots setting from 6300 meters away



damage from the 24V torpedo



comparative damage on a Clemson DD of both french torpedoes. I set the M26V to half the power of the 24V since it only has 144 kg TNT instead of 310 kg TNT.


This mod intends to mod two types of french torpedoes of WWII : the 21 inch and the 14 inch torpedoes, the latter were used in swivel mounts found under the deck of various french submarines and had very little hitpower.

24V (21.65")

Explosive Charge 683 lbs. (310 kg) TNT
Range / Speed
3,300 yards (3,000 m) / 45 knots
7,650 yards (7,000 m) / 35 knots

M26V (15.75")

Explosive Charge 317 lbs. (144 kg) TNT
Range / Speed
2,200 yards (2,000 m) / 44 knots
3,300 yards (3,000 m) / 35

Interesting, but is there any historical background on using them in allied subs? Or is this a fantasy mod? Just curious

the ever challenging knight strikes again ! vade retro Dom Quijote !

I might just get the Surcouf model soon...

I need to figure out how to make swiveling torpedo tubes then

I will use the M26V in the external non reloadable 15 inch torpedo tubes, I am currently trying to make a new weapoon of that tube, and the 24V in the bow tubes...

Then I'll need a turret with twin guns...

regards

Hey, that was a really polite way of saying "That pestering bastard again"

Good to know you are thinking of bringing the Surcouf fully to life
