I have SH4 but haven't ever done much with it. Pacific has never really interested me much for whatever reason.
Did the same with AOD and SH1; had both, only played one !

Pay attention to derstosstrupp SixthFall; great source of info. :salute:

The US TDC did, mid through late war have direct connection to the TBT (Target Bearing Transmitter) on the Bridge, but not to the attack or Observation scope. That definitely would have been a Plus. Also US subs has certain torpedo settings that had to be "set" before the weapon was loaded. THAT was a pain in torpedo..lol

Both machines, Im confident, were marvelous for the time!
