This was grabbed from the recent Battlefield 1 concept art the was revealed (leaked?) [yesterday.](https://battlefieldforum.net/index.php?threads/battlefield-1-concept-art.258/), however this one sticks out at me… WTF is on the train?

Hrmm.. On second thought, looks like it might be a torpedo on a boat, with all the splashing…

Dunno, but that’s a funny thread title.

Torpedo on a train. Made me think of the saying, “you’re as useless as a screen door on a submarine”.

Are you sure that’s a train? It looks like water splashing beside it

Yeah - hard to tell really. When I first looked at it on my phone, it looked to be a train, but when I see it blown up now, it very well could be a boat…

It’s called a torpedo boat. Why do you think the railbridge is there in the background…

Glad you learned something, could be an interesting vehicle for naval battles. The torpedo could very well be the replacement of TOW or TV-missile on boats.

It’s a torpedo boat. Probably a German “A” class 1916 torpedo boat.

That is most certainly a torpedo boat as has been mentioned. And my guess is that we’re gonna need those to take out larger sheeps.

If you look at the one of the British manned boats and German Ships. The torpedos and MG are the same location.
