TDC manuals (Real)

pickinthebanjo · 04-29-10, 06:21 PM

Found some .pdf files about various TDC's on my computer. I have the American and Japanese manuals but not the German yet. If anyone want's a copy of them as they are quite informative I have posted links.

Ps. they are De-Classified so don't be alarmed at the headers on every page reading Classified as they are original and have not been updated

Nice find ! I didn't have the Japanese one...

I am pretty sure Hitman must have a few things for us soon...

Yeah hey, maybe someone can use these to help make a GUI more accurate. I still want to find the German TDC manual

I also have the original "Manual" for a VIIC, it's detailed right down to the piping for the crapper

Can you share that with us, please ( original "Manual" for a VIIC ) ??

Never found a pdf so far on German TDC

It looks fascinanting! Great Work, man!

Nice!

Can you zip up the VIIC Manual and give a download link? (preferably retaining the original resolutions)

Ta. (edit - In fact, I'll gladly take anything you got)

IIRC that manual is the basic one used for crew training. It mentions and describes everything on the boat, but does not go into detail in such things as TDC, scopes, etc. A good read, though.

I have never seen an original manual for the Siemens S3 TDC, only some pages with schemes of the layout.

I wish I could get one.

awesome pictures! I now have a new desktop!

pickinthebanjo · 04-30-10, 10:30 AM

Ok those pictures are from an engineering Manual, If something broke you looked it up and new exactly how to fix it. The TDC had it's own manual but I don;t have that yet, it would be similar to the US/Jap manuals. There were also code books onboard I got tons of those, also there were manuals for Radio, Periscope, and Numerous other things that I have yet to find but I will post whatever I come across.

If anyone want I got a US field ordanace Manual as well, that one is very usefull as it describes everything from 30-06 ballistics to 1000lb aircraft bombs. I use to use it while adjusting various rifles I own since it has good data on the cartridges that I load.

The proper order for that U-570 manual is the First post With the cover, then the post after it and then the top post. I could reorganise it but I don't feel like doing that, I recomend save the schematic pics as you can zoom right down into them and they don't blur out.
