The MTB-1 1 series is a reserve Rank I British motor torpedo boat
with a battle rating of 1.0 (AB/RB/SB). It was introduced in Update 1.83 "Masters of the Sea" as part of the British fleet closed beta test.
General info
Survivability and armour
The MTB-1 has no armour at all, so the motor torpedo boat (MTB) can't take too may hits. MTB-1 has 11 crew members, which is quite numerous compared to the German and Soviet MTB's. In terms of survivability, it is best to keep moving due to the absence of armour on the boat.
Mobility
Write about the ship’s mobility. Evaluate its power and maneuverability, rudder rerouting speed, stopping speed at full tilt, with its maximum forward speed and reverse speed.
Armament
Primary armament
The MTB-1 has decent armament for a MTB. There are two turrets, one at the front and one at the stern, both turrets have four 7.72 mm Lewis machine guns. Due to the high firing rate, you can destroy any MBT and most larger ships like the Soviet OD-200 and the German R-boat. It is quite easy to run out of ammo, and the Lewis machine guns are also slow to reload.
Torpedo armament
The MBT-1 has two 18 inch Mk.XII Torpedoes
Special armament
The MBT-1 can be equipped with four Mk.VII depth charges
Usage in the battles
As with any MTB, it is best to keep moving due to no armour. A few hits from an enemy MTB or ship will easily destroy you. When facing ships such as the Soviet OD-200, it's best not to get to close since they have a powerful cannon. 1km is a perfect firing range for this boat as you can hit most targets reliable. Due to the high firing rate, you can destroy ships such as mine sweepers and sub chasers.
Pros and cons
Pros:
- Two turrets of quad-mounted Lewis guns
- Armament has a high rate of fire
- Fast and with good mobility
Cons:
- No armour, can be easily destroyed
- Small calibre armament means lots of ammo may have to be expended to eliminate an enemy
History
Talk about the history of the creation and military application of the ship in greater detail than in the introduction. If there turns out to be too much historical information, put it in a separate article, taking the link to the vehicle article and adding the “/historical” block to it (e.g. https://wiki.warthunder.ru/Vehicle-name/historical) and add a link to it here using the main template. Links to sources must be provided at the end of the article.
Media
An excellent addition to the article will be video guides, as well as screenshots from the game and photos.
Read also
Links to the articles on the War Thunder Wiki that you think will be useful for the reader, for example,
- reference to the series of the ship;
- links to approximate analogues of other nations and research trees.
ETC.
Sources
Paste links to sources and external resources, such as:
- topic on the official game forum;
- page on ship encyclopedia;
- other literature.
