He'd also need to clone himself a few times as well I think....!

great, any ideas how this will work with TMO?

[keltos01]

have to ask Ducimus to make a patch or if someone else would be so kind as to make one ?

I'm still away from all computers for another three weeks.

those twin AA guns are mean !

I read that they relseased dummy scopes so as to make the enemy attack dummy targets... maybe we could make those ?

Interesting boat the T-class was I guess! I like how they put the deck gun up on the conning tower!

And they used it a lot on smaller ships that weren't worth a torpedo. And the DG crew was protected by the turret's armor and was sitting a bit higher than the deck so they had a better view, not a bad choice really.

Budget cuts in the interwar period left them without a real TDC though.. they had to "aim the boat" and at first had no stern tubes..

read in a book that Cjimenza sent me
Rear Admiral Ben Bryant : Submarine Commander, p.120

:

"Ninety Bender"

the British had a device on their submarines that allowed them to set the torpedo gyro up to 90° !!!

away with the 20° I set for the sub, it's not as much as the US 135° but it's better than nothing !!!

I usually try to get as little gyro angle as I can anyways
I think I'll try this sub out. Is it able to be used in single missions?

[Bubblehead1980]

Hopefully we can get someone to make this work with TMO campaign and perhaps a British voice patch in the future?

Do all ten torpedo tubes work? Would be cool to play from the Brit perspective in the Java Sea/Indian Ocean area

[keltos01]

Yes all 10 tubes work

and Ducimus is making a patch for TMO

And JU_88 a much more detailed 3d model

awseome....

hey what class was the sub used in the movie We Dive At Dawn?
She was the Sea Tiger... P71 or something like that. It reminded me so much of an S-boat.

I think there were two Oruç Reis class submarines used in the film, these subs were based on the British S-class and were originally part of a Turkish Navy order with Vickers.
