Dili:
Anyone knows models were the Depth Charges in RYN? or at least the country origin?

Is this a Dubrovnik depth charge?

Dreadnought:
It's certainly looks like ... As far as I know, Dubrovnik had 4 depth charge thrower. I have no exact information what type ...

But to assume that RYN was in possesion of depth charges of Wickers type for they torpedo boats of Thornycroftu type, I guess that same manufacturer was used for the procurement of depth chages for Dubrovnik ...

Of course this is pure speculation in the absence of accurate information ... ;)

Dili:
Thanks. Do you know if there are any place that could have that information? Museum, Archives?

Dreadnought:
Archives of the RYN are mainly scattered in various institutions and museums ... There is no single database in to which you can find all in one place ... A large part of the documentation was destroyed in World War II.

You could try to contact the naval museum in Split (Vojno-pomorski muzej Split) ... Or you could wait the answer here with us on Paluba ... Maybe someone will know the answer  :)

MOTORISTA:
It`s look like Vickers Type D depth charge on Depth Charge Release Track Type A
