>>65211345>two underwater kamikaze drones for asymmetric engagements, one with 200 nm range. Can be guided by fiber wire or satellite depending on the missionStrange spelling of torpedo.
>>65211354Not a torpedo exactly, has an explosive payload but can be also used for reconnaissance. Can share data with the host or move in swarm mode. Great tool for Mediterranean and Black Sea.
this are remote controled and have a camera, so they are in fact drones, crazy to think well see nuclear stealth submarines sunk by under water drones eventualy.truly the end all be of warfare
>>65211377I think that'd be the worst use for them. Their sonar will be very weak compared to a submarine's one, so it would very hard to detect them. I think they'd be best used against surface assets due to easier tracking.
Turkey is becoming the modern day equivalent of Imperial Japan in WWII.
>>65211393Bombed?
>>65211375It's a loitering torpedo, or even call it a smart torpedo to use these stupid naming conventions. Calling everything a drone, and then the addition of kamikazee when it delivers the munition is fucking stupid.
>>65211391They can silently loiter at neutral bouyancy indefinitely until a sub passes by. This is the ultimate horror for subs. The hunter becomes the hunted.
