Too Propbeanie and torpedobait, the height of the periscope is exactly what I experienced, without realizing it. For first time in all the years (but not decades) that I've played Sh4 I finally encountered the strike force on May 6 in Coral Sea. The Mogami passed within 1000 yds astern and I kept losing the lock at P-depth with scope fully raised, but had the lock in the three CVs at 3800 yds. If I raised the boat some more I was able to re-lock. BTW, the Mogami never fired on me(!) at this close range, so I sank it with 1 hit to its screws. Also got the Shokaku. Thank you FotRS-U
