As Proven In Wikipedia,Torpedos Were Not Very Reliable in In world War To And As Seen in this Article Below Guided ones did not come out intill Late wW2 (Around 1944-1945) And Because This is Based in 1941,It is possible to dodge Them if you Floor it,For Exemple:Patrol Boats And dEstroyes,And Sometimes Cruisers Can dodge Torpedos,But On Battleships,Theres no real way to dodge them becuase They move so slow. Here is The Article: Guided torpedoes Later in the Second World War, torpedoes were given acoustic (homing) guidance systems, originally by the Germans in the G7es torpedo. Pattern-following and wake homing torpedoes were also developed. Acoustic homing formed the basis for torpedo guidance after the Second World War. Though Lupis' original design had been rope guided, torpedoes were not wireguided until the 1960s. Because of improved submarine strength and speed, torpedoes had to be given improved warheads and better motors. During the Cold War, torpedoes were an important asset with the advent of nuclear powered submarines, which did not have to surface often, particularly those carrying strategic nuclear missiles.

As I said on Habbo, you'd still need some super human reflexes to dodge a TORPEDO in the heat of battle. <_<

I think so. Cause, by the way, Mostly Subs come unexpexted. By the time you see it fire, youd be hit by the time you ran.
( Unless a Patrol boat MAYBE )

Yes,But fraged has a point,Destroyers and Recon planes had SONAR so unless the sub weas at a deapthg that it couldent fire torps,Wed know it was there... Plus torpedos are unrelaible.

Now,i play a vidio game called BattleStations Pacific,Not saying this hame is %100 true,But you cna just fire a torpo in a direction,and a CRUISEr going at 20 nots could dogje it,and get clos eneoupgh,you get deaph charged,and subs only reach 24 MPH under thwe water,So the sub itself can be outrun. And when it ahs to surface,its armor is a fail,so itle go bang bang from artillily,
P.S peaple are saying subs can sink subs? impossible underwater,The toprs are designged to go to the surface,not go straight forward.
