      The biggest issue with the Argus pulse jets was their low static thrust. V-1s could not take off using the jet engine alone, they required rocket assist or catapults to get airborne. Very few details are known about the Tornado as no photos exist, some sources say it had two Argus engines - which makes more sense. It used two floats from the amphibious Ju-52, but exactly how the floats and engine were configured is unknown. About all that is known with reasonable certainty is that it did reach high speed but had terrible seakeeping and would be limited to relatively smooth water. The overall concept had some merit as the Italians managed to sink several warships with much slower explosive boats.
      The video mentioned a maximum speed before becoming unstable - I don’t know where that statement came from as I have found no reference to that effect. However I have demonstrated that it is likely true. I built a 90cm radio controlled model of the Tornado several years ago based on the most popular rendition of the boat powered by a propeller - model jet engines either produce inadequate thrust or are too large for a semi-scale model. Up to a scale speed of about 50 knots the boat ran well but above that it could begin to porpoise badly. You can see that clearly in the video found in the link below.

      But they've got very low thrust - about 500 lbs. static - at, say, 50 mph, that's about 66 HP. You'd do better sticking a commercial outboard on the thing. Jets don't really provide a power advantage until you get up around 375 mph.

    Plural of Schnellboot is Schnellboote, not Schnellboots :)
    A 70 knot boat is useless as a torpedo boat in the context of WW2 as WW2 torpedoes didn't go that fast.
    WW2 torpedoes were capable of at most between 40 and 50 knots, most of them sitting at the lower end of that range.
    For launching at higher speeds aircraft torpedoes needed braking in order to hit the water slow enough that they wouldn't break up on contact (which is why torpedo aircraft were so slow, or at the very least were capable of very slow speeds without stalling even when fully armed).

    • @ottovonbismarck2443
      @ottovonbismarck2443 2 года назад +20

      1. You draw the wrong conclusions. At 70 knots you'll produce a wake that can be seen in the dark from the moon. You won't tell everybody that you're out there until you launch you eels. Instead you wait silently in the dark in an ambush position, launch your torpedos and get the hell out of Dodge City.
      2. You could set up torpedos for either range or speed, thus some torpedos exceeded 50 knots easily. Type 93 "Long Lance" comes to my mind.

      You would need at least two cylinders to form the V which the engine name comes from. A single cylinder would never be called a V1.
