Hey guys - quick question.

I just set up a basic scenario where I was in a Flt 1 688 and went up against an Alfa in the Black Sea.

I launched (twice) a good spread of torps, from about 7,500 yds (good enable range)- but the Alfa outran them all.

When I tried to 'steer' the torps onto the Alfa, they mysteriously 'ran out of fuel' when they got close...(show truth showed this too)

I was quiet (2-3 knots) and he was belting around at 14 knots - whenever he turned at me, he'd 'turn away' just as I was about to get another shot in.

Have you guys every 'bagged' an Alfa? What's the secret?

Thanks heaps,
Stew
