Motor Torpedo Boat (28mm)
SHIPPING & DISCOUNT CODES CALCULATED DURING CHECKOUT
Designed by British company Vospers, this Motor Torpedo Boat (or MTB) 73' type was used extensively by the Royal Navy Coastal Forces from the channel to the Mediterranean.
These 73-foot boats came about in 1943 from a requirement that British MTBs should be better able to fight other small craft, which was generally the job of the larger motor gunboats (MGB).
Equipped with four 18-inch torpedo tubes as their major offensive armament along with Oerlikon 20 mm cannon and some defensive armament (generally two twin Vickers K machine guns, one either side) for protection against enemy aircraft, they could pack a punch against enemy shipping
