My Operational 1/20th scale US Navy WW2 21" Mk15 Torpedo
The modelling objective is an operational 1/20th scale WW2 US Navy Mk15 Torpedo. This was the torpedo used on PT boats as an alternative to the earlier MK8 Torpedoes (which were left over from WW1) and used up until the fitting of the much lighter Roll Off Racks and the use of shorter, faster and lighter (aircraft style) 22.5 inch diameter Mk13 torpedo's.
I recently drew up the Mark 15 Torpedo, these were used thoughout most of WW2 and fitted the standard 21 inch torpedo tubes, I have given the dimensions for 1/20th scale.
Much more to come.
