Renouf Type M[1]

The Type M Renouf Torpedo Tactical Instrument was conceived around 1919 and in 1920 a pair were planned for manufacture so they might be tried.

Concept and Design

The device's function is explained in the Annual Report of the Torpedo School, 1919.[2]

A full description was being promised for a forthcoming edition of the Handbook of Torpedo Control.[3]

By 1921, only two had been issued, one each to Queen Elizabeth and Barham.[4]
