Soviet torpedo plane
The
Tu-2T aircraft was a variant of the serial Tu-2 bomber, upgraded as a
naval torpedo aircraft. This modification was developed and tested in
the spring of 1945. It was equipped with special holders that allowed
the use of two torpedoes type 45-36AN. Torpedoes could be used for naval
purposes both in turn and simultaneously. During a two-torpedo volley, a
special device monitored the time interval of their discharge
(torpedoes were dropped with an interval of 0.25 seconds).
It was
also possible to use the aircraft as a bomber. It was able to carry a
bomb load weighing up to 3,000 kilograms. Alternatively, the Tu-2T could
be used to set up landmines.
