Because the TP-13 is not nearly powerful enough for that. It is the equivalent of the american Mk-46. It's primary design is not to attack surface vessels, as it is only powerful enough to do superficial damage.
if you know this. you should know that the name realy is "TP613" and that it´s primary design is to attack surface vesseles. I worked with this torpedo for one year in the navy.
First off, nobody really cares about the name primitive swedish munitions. Secondly, that torpedo design was plagarized off of the original MK46 US torp. It is built mainly for anti-torpedo and anti-sub defense. Why in the hell would a surface vessel want to use a small Torpedo against another surface vessel, when missiles are far more effective???
I worked with Torps for 5 years, specializing in the MK48 ADCAP. Look that one up.
the Norwegian navy sucks dick .
makes me ashamed of being Norwegian
FUCK SOCIALISM!

Hauk-class mtb has no means to attack a sub ,only surfaced targets.

@johntvette Think we had one of those (mk48) on the Robert e lee. I think the drill was shoot it and run like hell.

The torpedo they showed being shot into the water did not do that. Only a sub-launched torpedo is powerful enough to do that kind of damage.

Thats right. The torpedo you see, is a swedish "tp-13" torpedo from a "FPB" and the one blowing up the boat is a sub-launched german torpedo.
But how do you know that the tp-13 torpedo don´t do as much damage as the german sub-torpedo?
This film is from when I served in the navy working with torpedos.
