How did you get it for the Asiatic Fleet?

I can only play it out of Pearl for FOTRS.

I have used the torpedo on the IOWA. I actually got a hit on a Japanese Battleship with one. I found a large Task Force coming from the South West around convoy college in the Luzon straights where I was assigned after completing my first objective which was sitting just south of the Bungo Straits and attacking shipping.

The TF crusied from SW towards the NE. I spotted them on radar and drove at flank down the pipe. With the exception of the escorts around them they were all in one long row. Not knowing what they were I decided to attack them head on and turn if I needed too. Sort of a flank speed passing broadsides.

I kept my guns silent until after their lead destroyer had fired at least ten rounds and their leading Battleship opened up on me then I unloaded on them. I fired the torpedo and I took command of the gun turrent and severly wounded the lead destroyer and the smaller guns sank it as we passed it by. The two Kongo Battleships put up a decent fight and the number two BB took a hard hit from the second torpedo as well as from my turrent and went sky high in a matter of seconds. The lead took a good pounding before sacuming and I simply slowed and ran down the line one after another. BB, Heavy Crusiers, Light Crusiers, with the excorts as desert.

In all I took out 16 Japanese capital ships in 14 minutes.

It was one hell of a rumble and I only wished I could have videoed that one.









I had a total of over 240,000 tonnes of shipping sunk between the Task Force and other targets and was awarded the Medal of Honor.
