Title: Torpedo Specs
Post by: JimmyD3 on April 02, 2025, 09:50:18 PM
Anyone know what the PT Boat Torpedo specs are? I have a copy of BudGrays "Aces High: Projectile Damage Values", but it does not mention the Torpedoes.

I believe the torpedo does the same damage as a 2000 pound bomb.

3 torpedos for the CV, 1 torpedo and some 40mm for the CA.

HERE (http://www.virtualpilots.fi/feature/lento_ohjeet/ah_torpedoguide/) is all you will ever need to know about sinking a CV of any other ship in Aces High.

As for the torpedoes, the AH wiki mentions Mark8 torpedoes for the games time period. Just guessing thats whats modeled.

I was testing one of bridges to see if torpedoes would take it down, It worked! Then I inadvertently drove the boat under the bridge, and it went through it out the other side.  :bolt:
