Chariot manned torpedo
The Chariot was the British design of the manned torpedo used in World War II. The British Chariot was inspired by the operations of Italian naval commandos. The Chariot was carried to an area of operation on a submarine, and launched underwater, carrying two frogmen into action. The Chariot would enter an enemy harbor; the frogmen would place limpet mines on enemy ships, and return to the submarine.
