The designation PT stands for Patrol Torpedo. PT boats have achieved the greatest success especially in the Pacific Ocean. The main task of these small and cheap vessels was to fight against the surface vessels of the enemy, but they were also used for other tasks, for example shelling targets on the coast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eStandard armament originally consisted of four 533 mm Mark 8 torpedoes and two twin-barreled 12.7 mm M2 Browning machine guns. During the war, for example, 37 mm and 40 mm cannons, launchers for unguided rockets (usually caliber 114.3 mm and later also 127 mm), mortars and slides for depth charges were newly installed. Conversely, two of the four torpedo tubes were removed on many ships to make room for other armament. From the middle of 1943, 569 mm Bliss-Leavitt Mark 13 torpedoes began to appear on PT boats, which were not placed in torpedo tubes, but in holders, from where they were dropped into the water next to the boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eModel Information:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTwo piece hull.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eInside the rooms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDecals with \"Nose Art\".\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Revell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43659313185016,"sku":"","price":67.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0260\/9361\/7198\/products\/RVL65175_3.jpg?v=1675876543","url":"https:\/\/craftsnthings.net\/products\/revell-pt-559-pt-160-1-72-set","provider":"Crafts N' Things Hobbies \u0026 Games ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
