7) munitions - The door on a few new possible munitions has been openned for the Germans
- The Germans have all the developmental plans for VT / Proximity shells. If what they did with the reversed engineering of the Rotterdam set to get the Berlin Radar moduals in OTL is any indication they may beat the allies to the first working units. This will make some very unhappy pilots in 1943 even more unhappy.
- Madrid, the technology the Germans have acquired may not help in the speed up of the iR unit but a radar directed one using the same guidence system is now possible. With a small radar unit mounted in place of the IR cell the same control mechanisms could direct a rocket towards its target.
- Shells, the 8", 11" and 15" shells used by the KM and coastal defence have issues which the KM is aware of. They now have full technical schematics for all the British shells including fuses.....solves a problem without spending tons of money for a new development program.
- The British hydrophone designs were smaller and more sensitive then the 1942 designs some of the KM units were using. This information may speed up the next generation of accoustic torpedoes the KM is developing.


That's all for now.
