Title: Torpedo Manual from Periscope Film
Post by: Rokket on 14 Mar , 2009, 20:49

Periscope Film - with member Mike Keating's help - has released a reprint of the 1944 submarine manual "Navpers 1085 Submerged Torpedo Tubes". Packed with great pix and info, both model research and general submarine interest.

Check it out:

   And that ain't all. They have the basic "Fleet Submarine Manual" and many of the systems; Trim and Drain, Hudraulic, Air, Diesel, etc.
   Here's tha page for them:

   If you buy and read all of the books, they have available, you'll be, just about, qualified on US diesel boats.
   AND, if you use them to detail your Revell 1:72 Gato, your wife/mother/significant other, will send for those large nice men, in white coat (with butterfly nets), to take you somewhere you can't hurt yourself.

LOL- I've got the main sub manual, which is excellent. I'm concentrating on the "meaty" bits
