Oh just noticed that "our" Mogami, the way we see it, was the only one of its class. Always thought the big flight deck was the normal class outfit, not only a post-Midway arrangement.
So maybe the torpedoes were truly removed then, but that looks strange...

Unless you happen to personally know the particular developer that was responsible for the models in the game?

Pretty sure that UBI had nothing to do with the 3D models. (shrug)

Easy enough to fix, it's probably an eqp problem.

Well it is beyond adding a torpedo mount - it is a matter of 3D modelling. Unlike low-level ships like the DDs, which have torpedo mounts on the deck, a ship like the Mogami has holes in the side of its superstructure to operate them. Thus, if indeed Mogami is supposed to have Starboard torpedoes mounts too (something I couldn't clarify yet, but nothing in its log available at Combined Fleet website indicate any torpedo mount removal) the whole 3D model will have to be addressed...
Still I can live with that

That's easy. Move 2 deck sailors to the holes in the dat, and change them to TTs in the eqp. The dat mod is a joke with S3D, easy.

It's pretty meaningless anyway, the fact they don;t shoot the fish is more of a flaw than the mounts not being there. They frequently hung canvas over the openings anyway.
