The more I think about it the more I wonder why submarines ever took
photos at all. It doesn't make any sense. For one, the photos might not
ever get back to home base. (sub sunk) Next, even if they did get back, it wouldn't be for six to eight weeks. Way too much time lost in gathering intel.
I would think a simple radio report on what they saw would be instant info.
Watch the movie "Destination: Tokyo", all they do is transmit the needed info
back to command. For them to take photos would be useless....

Actually, they DID take many useful images---of BEACHES and beach defenses. That's why I have an invisible ship now, to put it in front of beach defences to make accurate photo missions.

The problem is I don't understand the 2 parameters in the mission. None seem to be how many images required.
