Sub vs Plane.. not healthy
Trouble is, Coastal Command learned fast, specially after Air Vice Marshall Joubert took over
when they detected a sub, they didnt attack at first, but called help, then, they attacked from multiple points of the compass, this in order to divide the atention of the AA-guns of the submarine. Subs that decided to fight it out were usually commanded by skippers that came from the surface branch of the Kriegsmarine. just see the degree of damage and kills on Uboats leaving from the bay of bizcay. Donitz changed the orders regarding how to cross the bay, to engage airplanes, not to engage, to travel in groups, introduced the Flak-heavy subs, etc. And that was real life, check "Black May" on the develpment of ASW weaps, tactics and the like, the germans lost 44 boats on a single month in may 43 and from then it was downhill... I dont know if Lurkers mod changes the way airplanes attack, I usually see single ones, not four or five making runs from all directions.

Just a quick question....the G7e's are listed as impact only detonators, yet they do have a magnetic setting from the TDC (i.e. I can change it, but not the speed and I would assume if they didnt have magnetic detonator I couldn't) Thanks in advance.

G7es
Quote:
1-during submerged daylight attacks 2-preferibly with magnetic detonators, to maximize damage 3-they are single speed only, about 30 knots G7a 1-to be fired at escorts for impact (along with one G7e) set for magnetic 2-to be used on night surface attacks mainly when the uboats attack in packs

The link to the patch 2 is not working correctly. Not a big dial as I followed the other link and searched for the patch, but again some people might have difficulties finding it.
Thanks for you hard work

I can't remember where i read this, maybe in uboat.net. Type XVIII http://www.uboat.net/types/xviii.htm Type XXI http://www.uboat.net/types/xxi.htm http://www.uboat.net/boats/u2511.htm U-2511 Type XXI 1st Type XXI to sail. 5 days. LOL! http://www.uboat.net/boats/u2529.htm nice fate.... russian electric station.. ROTFL!! http://www.uboat.net/boats/u2540.htm Museum Boat http://www.uboat.net/boats/u3503.htm Through the history a link to nice 1946 photos.. Sorry but i have to bring u some nice infos :p Also Type XXIII made to sea and scored some hits. in fact: http://www.uboat.net/types/xxiii.htm http://www.uboat.net/boats/u2321.htm (note 1 patrol 1 ship sunk) http://www.uboat.net/boats/u2322.htm (note 2 patrols 1 ship sunk) http://www.uboat.net/boats/u2324.htm (note 2 patrols no ships sunk) http://www.uboat.net/boats/u2326.htm (as above) http://www.uboat.net/boats/u2329.htm (1 patrol no ships sunk) http://www.uboat.net/boats/u2336.htm (1 patrol 2 ships sunk) etc... Please, ur mod is fantastic, just tune it (i.e. adding the AA fix, thx for adding Opened Hatch mod ), and use in it real infos... i think here most parts of the Atlantik addicts like me would like to have something closer to GWX and maybe even faaaar superior (i know it's impossible lol), but please make it as realistic as possible! I think also in 1943 type IX D2 sailing from Lorient was able to use some equipment and weaponry modifications, i can't remind right about now, i'll look for this later (i need to sleep), maybe there were also some other kind of torpedoes yet available..:hmm: U are doing great btw!
