This mod balances the explosive ordnances in the game to that of their historical values. Speed, Range, Damages for bombs, torpedo's, airplanes and other weapons.
What does that mean in regards to the game play and feel? Overall it means that time to kill has been slightly increased across the board in general (their are some outliers where TTK has been reduced, check the documentation for full change details).
Torpedo's
Stats are set to their relevant details for Torp Modifications listed below for the year of '43, including warheads, running speeds and running ranges based off the list below (no mod listed is reference version aka Mod 0).
This mods torpedo values have been removed as the vanilla game now includes historic values!
Bombs and other ordnances
The damages updated based on explosive compositions weight (kg) converted to TNT equivalent
Depth Charges lethal radius updated as well as their damage values
AAA range and burst radius updated to historical values
Airplanes
All aircraft range values changed to match payload weight being carried in regards to their airframe as follows,
Example: Take the IJN air launched Type 91 Mod 3 Torpedo which has a net weight of 849kg and look at 2 aircraft carrying such a payload;
The CV launched Torpedo bomber Kate would have it's range modified as follows .66 = (100 - (.04 * 849)) / 100
The Twin Engine Medium Bomber Betty would have it's range modified as follows .83 = (100 - (.02 * 849)) / 100
So the single engine Kate would achieve just 66% of it's stated range and the twin engine Betty would achieve 83% of it's stated range.

Airplanes
All aircraft range values changed to match payload weight being carried in regards to their airframe as follows,
- Single Engine Frame R = (100 - (.04 * W)) / 100
- Twin Engine Frame R = (100 - (.02 * W)) / 100
- Quad Engine Frame R = (100 - (.01 * W)) / 100
Example: Take the IJN air launched Type 91 Mod 3 Torpedo which has a net weight of 849kg and look at 2 aircraft carrying such a payload;
The CV launched Torpedo bomber Kate would have it's range modified as follows .66 = (100 - (.04 * 849)) / 100
