Wiring for Hood's Dreyer Torpedo Control Table[1]
The Dreyer Torpedo Control Table was a device adapted from the Dreyer Fire Control Table to meet the needs of torpedo control. They were similar in concept to the Torpedo Control Plotting Instruments.
It was to feature the dual-instrument bearing plot that a critique of the Torpedo Control Plotting instruments had suggested for that device.
History
The first one was almost completed at the end of 1917, and was to be fitted in Ramillies. A second was already on order for Hood, and a pamphlet for the device was being written.[2]
