Although it looks like it's an entire room, what you're actually seeing there is the walkway that you saw at the top of the hangar. That's the sort of scale we're talking. Like I mentioned, at the bottom of the hangar, there's basically a conveyor belt that connects to the torpedo control at the top. So behind what you're seeing in that image there is the cargo grid, and what you're seeing to the left there, closest to us, is an actual constantly rotating conveyor belt. So if you want to load torpedoes, you take them from the cargo grid and put them on there, and they'll then make their way to the actual torpedo control room where the tube bays actually are, to be taken off and then loaded into the tubes to be fired. So on either side there's a constant rotating thing, so if you need more torpedoes you can just take them straight off the grid, straight onto there, and it goes up to then be manually loaded.

We've mentioned this is a multi-crew ship.

It's definitely a multi-crew ship. If you want this thing to be efficient, then you will need it. Can you do this by yourself? Yes, you'll get a good workout running around the ship.

You'll get 20 shots out of the torpedo tubes, and that's it, instead of it being ready to go again as soon as it's fired. Because at the end of the day, as long as there's someone there feeding it, it can just keep going.

More multi-crew roles than just sitting in a turret, although we do have a lot of turrets.

John Crewe · Vehicle team

We have a lot of people just sitting in turrets. We have 23.

Well, me and Alberto were counting them before. We had to keep recounting to make sure we had the right ones.

Alberto Petronio · Vehicle Concept Artist

It turned out we're not good at math.

Vehicle/Ship Designer

No, we're terrible at it. We're absolutely atrocious, and we made the damn thing. It was 15 manned and eight remote, and that's just turrets, not to mention all the other things people can do across the ship.

But those remote turrets still have to be operated.

Vehicle/Ship Designer

Yeah, they are remote turrets. There's an entire room dedicated to that.
