Why savegames?

Do you have the Steinbarsch Walther Torpedo in your Basic.cfg file?

When no, you must first entry the Steinbarsch Walther in Basic.cfg before you can use them!

Example from the CCoM Super-MOD (Basic.cfg):

...
[TORPEDO_TYPE10]; T VII - Steinbarsch Walter (G7ut)
Idx=9
Year=1945
Month=1
PrototypeYear=1944
PrototypMonth=10
Renown=350
...

I'm using GWX, so yes, the torpedo is there. It's also there when I start a new game (modded default layout), but I can't get it early when loading my campaign save.

Return to base first and try changing the month and year availability dates.

It may be the case you'll need to start a new career....it has been so long ago.
