Battle Report - Hunt for Rabbit

PL_Cmd_Jacek · 10-23-16, 02:57 PM

Today we managed to play a mission by Cpt. Kyte called "Hunt fo Rabbit".

Me on Los Angeles had a task to sink a small group of ships: LSTs and a tanker. They were escorted by Udaloy, Heli and aeroplane.

I received a messsage that they left a port on a south island. I was wondering what will be the course of enemy task force. I set a course and speed up. I assumed that they would go somehow between St. Anna and Rebun Island

This time I was not so lucky. I was detected soon. I tried to evade torpedoes. I do not know how many of them were launched at me, but I coounted at least 8 reports "Torpedo in the Water"

Couple minutes later, I was hit by one of the fish. So I blown a ballast and went surface. The crew was ready to abandon the ship. I prepared the missile launcher and had a hope to attack the last time. And it worked

. The plane was coming. I did not waste time and pull a trigger. EGIPOP was shot down.

My crew was exciting but 2 minutes later I was hit by Kyte's Silex. And my ship was sunk.

Nice and interesting battle. At the end I looked at "Show True" and it appeared that I predicted the enemy course properly. However due to lack of caution, I was detected and destroyed by the escort force.

Wow, talk about close call with that plane! Jeez, no more than a few hundred yards away!

The worst enemy, for a SUB, is always from the air.
Good job Jacek...

P.S.: A prayer for your ship!

After a torpedo hit, my boat was 86% damaged. Maximum speed was limited to 12 kts. Almost all systems damaged. That is why decided to surface.
