''"A famous high-powered, long range mount, the secret weapon "Type 93 Oxygen Torpedo". The oxygen torpedo was able to bring certain death with its four mounts as well as being the definitive torpedo mount, using the four twin [Oxygen Torpedos] firing tubes. As the main equipment for destroyers and cruisers, it played a major role in night warfare and many other compositions."''

A torpedo developed by the Japanese. It was nicknamed the "Long Lance" and it lived up to its name. While other navies used steam propulsion for their torpedoes, the Japanese came up with the concept of using oxygen to propel their torpedoes. The advantage were the torpedoes left no wake, had a longer range, and tended to be faster then the steam propelled ones. These were used to a devastating effect during the sea battles off Guadalcanal.
