Has anyone some detailed, technical information about preheating of the G7e T II?

Hi evan82,

thanks for the data. As I understand it the 30kn/5000m were for preheated torps. The question is from when the torps were preheated? From the beginning of the war? And how did it work? I could not find any clear answer on these questions in the web. I hope someone has some good, reliable books about this

Cheers, LGN1

No one any ideas

?

It would be great to know at least how long the pre-heating took. I know there are some real experts here

Please help if you have some knowledge/good book.

Cheers, LGN1

Hi, try looking over at www.uboataces.com They have some info there. It seems they had internal heaters that heated the batteries to 86 degrees prior to fireing.
