As Antonio explains, after calculating the solution, torpedo settings about gyro angle was passing automatically from the computer to the torpedos into their tubes. Any change in the entries became a new gyro angle in the torpedo tubes.
After lauching, a course-keeping gyroscope, powered by air compressed, turned the torpedo on the calculated angle, towards the target.
Torpedo tubes were fixed in all types of U-Boats. Torpedos turned theirself the required angle.
Bye.
