for example, in PQ-17 and Ice Baby 1 single missions, all convoy run at 4kts. In Accademy, in Torpedo Attack and Convoy Training, the same. Yesterday, the convoy encountered in St George's Channel during my testing campain was running at 4kts also. This doesn't apply to DD cruise..

However, I need more observations in game to confirm this....
Their normal speed would be between 4 and 7 knts.

However, if they were turning (rudder), their speed would slow down a tad.

Thanks, but during merchant zig-zagging, the speed drop to 2kts, so it might be better arise the cruising speed up to 6-7kts, so during zig-zagging the speed will drop to 3-4kts.

For instance, the cruising speed for Liberty Ship is 11kts
