Submarine Torpedo Tactics and Risks in Warfare
The piece explains modern submarines carry five torpedoes and can fire sequentially via compressed air. It notes the firing system betrays little shock and emphasizes how vulnerable subs are when surfacing to aim. It argues battleships can be sunk even with visible periscope by shells, and describes periscope usage and attack challenges.
Submarine propulsion and endurance described in historic view
The text explains sea gasoline engines powering submarines on the surface, generating electricity for electric propulsion underwater, with submersible speed around eleven knots on the surface and five below. Submarines can rest on the sea bottom for up to twenty four hours, often enabling operations during storms. Some vessels reportedly travel four thousand miles between fuel stops, and surface visibility ranges about eight miles, with periscope detection risks noted. The article mentions gyro compass and vulnerability of surfaced periscopes to return fire and torpedo threats. It also briefly discusses ozone formation from sunlight and its microbial effects, describing ozone as a reactive form of oxygen produced when ultraviolet light splits diatomic oxygen.
