| Senior Member | Ok I'm going to ask - we are talking about torpedos as in U-Boats correct? If so, the engines had to last several hours????

| Many torpedos are (were) launched with a practice warhead, then recovered and re-armed for use. Everything (aiming, launch system, torpedo) is tested for a small fuel expenditure. Torpedos are quite pricey! |
