what we would really need is good chart of Torbedo tubes onboard surface ships...

Apparently, the "Tsarist Navy Shkval" has nothing to do with tsarists ;) I just noticed it placed next to a real submarine you just posted and I was like "a modern nuclear sub armed with a tsarist torpedo? :shock:"
:mrgreen:
No big deal though, it looks like the image is from your AU, that's probably why the name is misleading.

A list of real torpedoes and TTs with some info (like year and country of deployment and size/speed/range) would be a really great help.

All of the torpedos on this sheet are real weapons. The current subdivision is simply up to and including WWII, and Modern.

"Tsarist Navy" is a joke. The Shkval is a very VERY real torpedo: It's a supercavitating rocket-propelled weapon. Yes, the Russians have an underwater rocket.

VA-111 Shkval at Wiki

Read it and be amazed. Or horrified.

I wouldn't want one on my ships. She's very loud (and this will point back to you like little else), and she runs on H2O2, not the best combination.

You wouldn't happen to have some wartime German torpedoes as well?

Yes. The two most common ones are on the sheet. 8-)

Whoops, sorry about that. I'd forgotten their German designation and tried finding them under the Danish one. Creatively called Torpedo M/45.
