I have come to realize after couple of tries, I really suck at manual targeting with the U-boot. I have no problems with the U.S. Sub but everytime I am in a U-boot I am firing and they miss and I am at close range between 1500 yards and 1000 yards. They seem to there too late. I know how to get AOB and range and get all the data for a good soultion but alas they seem to miss and I have a good gyroangle, AOB(90) and have the speed. I fire at the appropiate time between 345 and 010. Very Frustrating! I keep a excel patrol log of what I come accross and what I fire and out 14 torpedos that I fired at 3 ships only 4 hit. Very disappointing! And yes the tube doors are open. I seem to do better with the US subs then I do with the German ones.
