Salute all ,

I'm using GWX and i'd like to know if corvettes and DD have a correct number of deep charges on board or they have infinite ? I was just wondering it because i'm used to count deep charges when i'm under attack ....

If GWX provide historically number of deep charges on DD/Corvette can somebody tell me the exact number? Or a web site where i can get these informations?

Thanks a lot! :up:

and aprox 100 in real life

IRL it depended on the weather as well. Because destroyers roll a lot it becomes impossible to load D/Cs in stormy weather.
In very bad weather they only effectivly have as many D/Cs as are in their racks.

Nope, not in SH3.
It is, however, modeled in real life.....errr....like most things are.

By accident (I guess) you managed to sound like a German from Berlin, because they don't tend to say "Leck mich am Arsch" but "Leck mir am Arsch".:rotfl:Very well done, indeed!:up:

According to HazeGray, Flowers originally carried 40 DCs, later 70.
http://www.hazegray.org/navhist/canada/ww2/flower/

Modified Flowers carried up to 100.

I have read of late-war destroyers carrying up to 240, but that is late war.
