Timing torpedo shots
Okay. I'm working with excel.
I am trying to build an excel spreadsheet to help with the timing of my torpedo shots in U-boat (although this would work equally well with SH3-5). Assuming you know the following: Range to target at torpedo launch Speed of target at torpedo launch AOB at torpedo launch Speed of torpedo I am trying to calculate the run time of the torpedo to impact with the target. I can't seem to find the formulas I need. Anyone have links or helpful information? Thanks. I know I need to solve the torpedo triangle problem, but I can't seem to figure out the angles and distances involved or find formulas to help me do this. Can someone help?
