PT boats with "virtual" torpedoes (now as mod)

Well, let's just say I put a battleship turret on a Catalina today, and it certainly worked. It wasn't 100% accurate, but very good; and it would probably be less so if we could slow down the 'rockets', but still deadly enough. The one thing I'd be worried about is reload time - so that there's only one shot, and that's it.

Planes, by the way, do not go into attack runs unless they're armed with bombs or D/C's. Once those are dropped, the planes leave no matter what other weapons they have. But they will shoot all weapons they have while they're on their attack run. Since they fly directly at the sub while on their attack run, they have no problem aiming gun-type weapons properly.

I think it can work, if we can give them the right "gun" for it :hmm:
