detection range of soviet torpedos?

[_Dracarys]

is there a chart listing the detection range/reaction time of soviet stock and elited torps?

 

i just got the ognevoy (sp) and am wondering if i should invest in +5 knots of torp upgrade.

Upgrade them, more speed is always good.

If the torp range is 4km, does the detection range really matter to begin with?

That's not what he's asking, he's asking the detection range of torpedoes, not the ship.

I think what he mean is, if you'll fire the torps from 4 km, then the enemy doesn't need to see them to avoid them.. assuming he will anyway!

Get speedier ones. You aren't shooting them from stealth so the less time from ship to target the less time they can realize you fired at them.

By all means invest in the rocket torp upgrade.  It's well worth it.  Even if they see them coming, it's hard to dodge 70 kt torps.  The 55 kt 8km  torps on the Tashkent, though, I wonder what their detection range is.

If your RU DD is that close that you are able to launch torps at an enemy...

Something horribly right has happened...

No just need to know when to use the speed boost and the smoke. I got 4 torp kills in my RU DD last night. It is like dancing...all about position and timing.
