List of torpedo launch parameters

[illegalBeagle]

Ok thanks. I spent ages looking for this, a search of the forums turned up nothing. So for reference, from the 4.10 PDF:

Each torpedo type in IL-2 has its optimum drop parameters, of course some error is allowed, but not too much.

• LT F5W (Italian Whitehead)
100m, 300Km/h

• LT F5B
40m, 250Km/h

• Mk13, Mk13a
30m, 205 km/h

• Mk13 late
180m, 400 km/h
(this torpedo had a much wider range of drop than the early one)

• Type91
30m, 240 Km/h

• Type91 late
60m, 330 km/h
(this torpedo had a much wider range of drop than the early one)

• 45-17
30m, 205 km/h

Also torpedoes had to run for some time into the water to arm their warhead, so torpedoes
cannot be dropped too close to the ship (distance should be bigger tan 400-600 meters).
Torpedoes dropped on ground or directly on the ship (without hitting water) will not explode.
