Between the torpedo's warhead and the engine section is placed the torpedo air flask, 6 ( or 8 in later builds ) steering air bottles and the forward trim tank followed by the control area and the pilot's seat.

In operation, the torpedo's operator would be positioned on a high telescopic steel tower, which could be extended hydraulically.

According to Brennan's biographer, Norman Tomlinson, Brennan was inspired to create his torpedo's unique propulsion system in 1874, when he noticed that a cotton reel, if the thread is pulled toward the operator from underneath, moves forward rather than backward.

The torpedo's pneumatic gyroscope was replaced by an electric model and controls were linked up to give the pilot full control over the weapon.

Once the torpedo's passive sonar has detected something, it will switch over to an active sonar and will begin to track the target.

Due to a leaking weld in the torpedo's fuel system, high test peroxide, a form of highly concentrated hydrogen peroxide used as an oxidiser for the torpedo's engine, escaped into the torpedo casing where it catalytically decomposed on the metals and oxides present there, yielding steam and oxygen.

A torpedo's hood ( bonnet ) line was level with the car's waistline, giving a straight line from front to back.

Passive countermeasures may consist of coatings to minimise a torpedo's sonar reflections or an outer hull to provide a stand-off from its explosion.

The torpedo's speed was determined by the level of pressure ( three settings for 30 / 40 / 44 kn ) from the low-pressure regualtor feeeding air to the bottom of the combustion chamber.

It was a mechanism consisting of a hydrostatic valve and pendulum that caused the torpedo's hydroplanes to be adjusted so as to maintain a preset depth.

An alternative was to " comb the tracks ", turning to parallel the incoming torpedo's course, but turning towards the torpedoes.

The Consolidation Programme was initiated following the torpedo's reliability failures during the Falklands War.

Flag Officer Submarines minuted that the proposal to arm the Mark VIII with the WE. 177A warhead would, despite the torpedo's performance shortcomings, be " much superior to any present British submarine weapon ..." However, the short range of the Mark VIII put the firing submarine within damage range of the nuclear warhead of its torpedo.

The control planes are identical to the type 92 torpedo's other than having a manually operated rudder fitted.

The torpedo's seeker has an active electronically steered " pinger " that helps avoid having to maneuver as it closes with the target.

Unconfirmed reports indicate that the torpedo's sensors can monitor surrounding electrical and magnetic fields.

The fins kept the torpedo's nose level in the air and broke off on entering the water.

However, the torpedo's inherent limitations in speed of attack and detection by the target have led to the development of missile-borne anti-submarine weapons that can be delivered practically on top of the enemy submarine, such as ASROC.

When fired, the torpedo's own compressed air engine was started and it propelled itself.

By 1870 Robert had managed to increase the torpedo's speed to and it could hit a target away.

* Gyroscopic stabilization to fix the torpedo's direction.

Stored data is regarded as part of the internal state of the entity performing the algorithm.

Stored energy is created whenever a particle has been moved through a field it interacts with ( requiring a force to do so ), but the energy to accomplish this is stored as a new position of the particles in the field — a configuration that must be " held " or fixed by a different type of force ( otherwise, the new configuration would resolve itself by the field pushing or pulling the particle back toward its previous position ).

When the term is still used, it means approximately the same thing as Stored Program Control exchange

* Vintage: Stored in the cask until the time it is bottled with the label showing the vintage date.
