  typex   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06)
Typex (or Type X or TypeX) was the main British electro-mechanical encryption device during World War II.
Typex was a five rotor machine, as opposed to three or four in the Enigma.
Typex machines continued in use after the war up until the 1970s (the New Zealand government disposed of its last machine in 1973 [1]).

 Typex
The British TYPEX machine was an offshoot of the commercial Enigma and purchased by the British for study in the 1920's.
Typex machine was similar to the Sigaba but was designed specifically to allow joint communications at highly secure levels between the British and the Americans during WW II.
One problem we had with the Typex was the sticky tape the 5-letter code groups were typed on during encryption, or the plain text during unencryption.

Some problems; Typex was also used by the Royal Navy, although it took them a while to roll it out.
There were, according to Ralph Erskine (ref'd in the article) serious problems with manufacturing sufficient numbers of Typex.
Erskine attributes some of the security of Typex to the fact that each network used a different set of rotors with their own wiring.

On I January 1950 Typex Mark 2 and Mark 3 were superseded by the Mark 22 and 23 (BID/08/2 and BID/08/3) the latter being a Mark 22 modified for use with the CCM adaptor.
The crossover consisted of a base plate fastened to the right hand side of the Typex containing a plugboard with 26 Ieads lettered A to Z which could be plugged into a lettered hole in accordance with a settings key which was changed at set intervals.

In a classic Engima machine with (say) ten rotors, you can have 10P3 = 10 \cdot 9 \cdot 8 = 720 different ways to arrange them, but in the Typex there were 10P5 = 10 \cdot 9 \cdot 8 \cdot 7 \cdot 6 = 30,240 possible combinations.
Another improvement the Typex had over the Engima was that each rotor in the machine contained several notches that would turn the "next rotor".
Their inability to use the machine in order to crack Typex messages may have convinced some of them even more of the security of Engima.

Another improvement the Typex had over the commercial Enigma machine was that each rotor in the machine contained multiple notches that would turn its neighbouring rotor.
Some Typex rotors came in two parts — a slug containing the wiring was inserted into a metal casing.
Typex was used by the British armed forces and was also used in Commonwealth countries such as Canada and New Zealand.

The two biggest game announcements for TypeX were Raiden III and Castle of Shikigami III, both of which will be released to arcades in 2005.
TypeX’s hardware was on display at the company's booth, looking at first glance more like an IBM-compatible PC machine rather than an arcade PCB setup.
For developers, TypeX's architecture and Windows XP-based operating system mean that games can be easily developed like a Windows program; it also means that PC games can be ported to the arcades with ease.

According to those who have had the opportunity to examine surviving specimens of this machine, they were not used for the obvious purpose of providing a return path for electrical current, thus allowing the unique weaknesses of the Enigma design to be avoided.
As the Typex is said to have very closely resembled the Enigma, I had assumed that it had a "650 break" as well, and this would have further complicated interoperation with the SIGABA.
Like the Typex, we have an Enigma with both multinotched rotors and a plugboard; British cryptanalysts working on the Abwehr Enigma on the one hand, and the Army and Navy Enigmas on the other saw that to be an effective combination.

The American SIGABA (M-134-C) was similiar to Typex, although the Americans never allowed the British to see it.
It is believed that the Combined Cipher Machine was never broken by the Axis, although a British test cryptanalytic attack made considerable progress, the results were far worse than against the Enigma, due to the increased complexity of the system and the low levels of traffic.
