Spearfish heavyweight torpedo
This mod adds the Spearfish heavyweight torpedo (prior to the mod 1 upgrade).
This is currently only enabled on the Swiftsure class submarine, however I will add them as more modern submarines arrive. For now it uses the model of the mk48, however more or less all of it statistics have been changed to reflect the age of the weapon. Once I learn how to actually import new 3D models and textures I will get around to updating it. This should be loaded before the Royal Navy modpack.
Specifications:
Search speed- 40 knots
Terminal speed – 65 knots
Range- 24 nautical miles
Spearfish is fairly overpowered in the context of sea power as most enemy submarines are from the 1980’s or earlier- this is a 1990’s weapon and as such has extremely good performance in game. It generally exceeds mk48 in all aspects, but particularly in sensor performance and countermeasure rejection. I have based performance off sources I have available to me, if someone has better please let me know and I will change it.
Credit to the Royal Navy modmakers for making an excellent mod, their skills far outstrip mine and without them I would have no submarine to add this to.
