Re: Torpedo launch "von Hand"

Hi Robert

Thanks for your help, this shows air compressed is not the only method to lauch a torpedo from a submarine.
But as far as German torpedo concerns, still it is not clear to me the procedure. Could a torpedo leave the flooded tube only by means of its own propellers?

VII C manual reports: "In the case of failure of the electrical firing system, the flashing of corresponding lamps indicates the time delay for mechanical launch." What does it means?

Thank you
