Early 1943 the departement "Technische Luftrüstung" led by Dr. Benecke proposed a new type Torpedo and developed and tested it at the Researchinstitute "Graf Zeppelin. The so called "BombenTorpedo" is unpowered Torpedo which was dropped in a low angle. This new developed Torpedo could be build in shortest time, much cheaper and resource saving. No expensive PowerUnit was needed.
Developed, built and tested had been:
BT 200 / BT 400 / BT 700a / BT 700 b / BT 1000 / BT 1400 / BT 1850
It is reported that some BT 400 and BT 1400 had been in service. Beginning 1945 the developement had been stopped.
