Mk 27 torpedos

I've never used the Mk 27 before, but I think it has only on speed setting and it's not really ment to sink ships. It's a homing torpedo, that should take out the ships propellor.

The Mk. 27 is ment as a defensive weapon but it is too slow to catch DDs. As I said that I've never used it but I've heard that DDs are too fast and too maneuverable for the MK 27.

LOL, the price is actually the reason why I've never used it.

I'd pay 1000 anyday if it makes the difference between sleeping with the whales at the bottom of the Pacific and limping back to Pearl. AFAIK, the Mk 27 was intended as a last resort, not as an offensive escort killer.
