Using Torpedos in Tonkin Gulf Incident?

[i fight by 1 0]

Ok, I searched torpedos it told me how to get them, which I did. I went to knoweldge base, didn't find what I was looking for, but it might be there because I looked under the wrong thing >_<. NEway, I have torpedos, but can't use them in the one Anti-ship mission I have :|. Any advice, or can somebody direct me in where it is in the KB :O.

That's where I got the torpedos from, ty btw :D. I need to know how can I equip them for a The Gulf Tonkin Incident mission. I can use them outside of this mission, but not for it :(...

Even if you had torpedoes, what would you use them against? The NV torpedo boats have a draft that's much shallower than the minimum depth setting that any torpedoes would reliably work at, and that's when they're at rest. Underway and planing, I'll bet that they draw less than six feet of water.

 

Update: The P4 boats are smaller and draw even less water than I thought at first, about 1 meter (39 inches): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P_4_class_torpedo_boat

 

Rockets, cluster bombs, or strafing with 20 mm cannon is the ticket, as they do not pose much of a threat to jet aircraft with their 14.7 mm machine guns.
