Motor torpedo boats (MTBs) were responsible for sinking numerous ships during their operational history, particularly in World War II. While exact numbers can vary, estimates suggest that MTBs sank thousands of tons of enemy shipping, including warships and merchant vessels. Their effectiveness lay in their speed, maneuverability, and ability to launch torpedoes from a distance. However, specific figures on the total number of ships sunk by MTBs can differ based on the source and the context of their use.
