I'm patrolling not far from Gibraltar. I see a nice juicy target - 12,000 ton passenger cargo, sailing solo. Perfect opportunity to setup a nice bow shot and test this theory out. Position. Carefully prepped firing solution. It's a big target and I'm firing from only 700m so I can't really miss.

"Fire tube one" (voice command rocks :rock: )

"Firing tube one. Torpedo in the water." comes the reply.

Impact. Spot on target. Only, I've just noticed that the ship's lights are on... and that flag isn't one I recognise...

"Er..."

Check the flag. The ship is Spanish. The Spanish are neutral. Oh. Fvck. :damn:

"Please don't sink. Please don't sink. Please don't sink."

It sank. :shifty:
