Need more juice in my torpedoes

I agree where merchants are concerned. Battleships, on the other hand, had Torpedo Defense Systems, or Torpedo Belts, which were filled with a liquid or steel tubes to absorb the blast and keep the real hull intact. Yamato and Musashi both took in excess of 15 torpedoes and 20 bombs before sinking.

Royal Oak, on the other hand, only took three or four, and she supposedly had a good TDS.

Tycho, was that your nuclear torpedoes that blew a Nelson 1000 feet into the air, flying end over end? If so, could you please re-post those old pics? They were wonderful.
