The last vessels commissioned before the war were six Thornycroft 60 foot Coastal Motor Boats. ![[ img ]](https://www.dropbox.com/s/4puorxb4um3lhnp/RTX%20TB-16%201916.png?dl=1) The motor torpedo boats were a new direction for the Texas Navy, powered by modified gasoline-fueled aircraft engines instead of steam engines. Their speed was incredible - up to 41 knots with well-maintained motors. Each carried two 18" torpedoes and 4 .308 machine guns. Crews were all enlisted under a coxswain; the squadron of six had three officers. During the war they were modified to employ a single torpedo and two depth charges, or no torpedoes and 4 depth charges for chasing submarines. |

About 3/4 of the way up on left edge is a few pixels of orange outline still showing. Interesting addition. |

Fantastic work, as always, Red! The reason why I love Red's designs is because he always tries to keep things real, poor/bad designs and all! |
