I didnt mean it as an insult. I actually have seen several of the original MTBs in the UK, i was considering buying one back in the 1970s and had a chance to see them in and out and talk to former crew and officers who served on them, hence my thoughts about them and their quality. The american PTs were not very strong and suffered a lot in a heavy sea, whereas the british MTBs were build with a stronger set of strakes and interior support that stood them in good stead in the close combat that developed in the inshore areas.. but as you say their construction was similar..just my impression from talking to men who served in both, i would have rather been aboard a RN MTB. But i meant no insult for men served in both with honour and loyalty.

The S-38 mod is in the download section, I like but would like to get the quad 20 on it

I ran across a British MTB somewhere just outside... Gibraltar I think. Middle of the night, slipping quietly through the straits and this thing pops out of the darkness ( I don't trust the AI to stand watch through the straights... I do it in the dark, and I stay on watch myself). I figured 'what the hey, I'm nearly through). Popped over to the deck gun. First shell must have hit something nasty because something popped and the whole boat caught fire. They started pissing back but it was decent range at night (about 800 meters or so), and I'd already started diving the boat.

I didn't stick around to see what happened but it must have sunk because I got credit for the kill. I did have a damage mod that causes fire to actually be a problem for vessels though, and it was a little boat :P

Managed to sink one of the little bleeders without any damage to U-36 or any of her crew
