On the subject of the Tokyo recon mission, while the written orders say to recon Tokyo harbor and take pictures if possible, the actual destination shown on the mission map is quite a bit south of Tokyo. The target destination Star is on Yaizu, about 95 miles south of the entrance to Tokyo Bay. Just thought you'd like to know.
CapnScurvy is working on the twin, and hopes to have a solution for the next version. It sounds like it might be at least a two-fold issue - crewing and equipment. We'll see.

As for the Recon missions, those have not been edited at all as of yet. The next beta release, we hope to have those completely disabled. They will be available at a later date as a Mod, after editing. If you choose a Narwhal, you are automatically put in the OPS flotilla, and you'll get about half of your missions as Insert, or Photo kind of missions. There are like 15 or 18 Photo missions, and a regular sub has a chance to get them also, especially that infamous Hiroshima on the 2nd patrol out of Pearl... The Inserts are staying for now... Just be aware that the camera button does not fully light up when it is enabled. You might notice, especially in a really dark envirnment, that it faintly lights up when you are "locked" on a valid target. It practically blinds you when you hover over it with the mouse. Also, the sound the camera button plays when pressed while locked on a valid target is not very loud either. Needless to say, it can be rather difficult to get "positive" feedback, and be aware that you mission might be complete (and again, CapnScurvy is working on this - but don't expect miracles).
