MK54 HAAWC torpedo speed to low

[Schr75]

Hi

When you drop the MK54 HAAWC, the torpedo only accelerate to its cruising speed of 36 knots, not its top speed of 45knots.
The standalone MK54 do accelerate to 45knots.

Not sure if this is a bug or a DB issue, so please feel free to move this post.

It is the creep speed, it will never reach the cruise speed.

As the sub is also creeping tried increasing its speed to flank, but this model of submarine is very slow.

Changed to PLARK-661 Papa, that reachs 40 kts.

But still the torpedo will not speed up.

This subs escapes, unless the destroying detonation of the torpedo hits it, too much bad luck

When it's air launched, the torpedo enters search mode to acquire the target, that's why it's using the lower speed.

We're checking how it should behave when it acquires the target

Watched this video and tried a russian similar weapon, SS-N-27 Sizzler with Paket-NK torpedo.

Corvette “Gremyashchiy”(Pr. 20385) searched for a submarine of the conditional enemy and launched a torpedo-missile(91R1)

Unfortunately the video only displays the missile, not the torpedo.

50 kts according to the db is the max speed, but will only reach 30.
