I'd disable the RFB mod and try it again, see what that does. Even a 3 inch punches a hole the size of a small card table in the side of a merchie, a dozen holes near the waterline SHOULD sink it. Stock game they geared it more toward "hit points" than actual sinking mechanics, but all the mods I've tried make them harder to sink instead of easier.

Unless you have the STEAM or console version, if all else fails edit the \Data\Library\shells.zon file to increase the damage numbers for the 105.

What I have for those (and I do my own mod soup so I have no idea what's different from stock):

97 (105 AP)

MinEF=35
MaxEF=60
AP=88
MinRadius=1.0
MaxRadius=4.0

99 (105 HE)

MinEF=21
MaxEF=36
AP=33
MinRadius=1.0
MaxRadius=4.0

I suspect those are stock numbers since I don't have 1.5 or any U-boats, and none of the US subs have a 105.
