If Mass+Speed= Inertia, shouldn't A sub be able to turn inside A DE of similar length due to slower speed ? Seems not to be modeled in game correctly, the turning radius/speed seems way to tight for DD's ? I do recall man overboard drills, It took almost .5Kn to turn 300Ft DE around at cruise speed to all stop,& lower boat at hard rudder.
