parachute mod

Wouldn't it be neat if there could be a mod that you would be able to see pilots parachute from thier airplanes?

What on earth for? Airplanes kill U-boats. DIVE! DIVE !DIVE!
In real life did an U-boat ever shoot down an airpane?

Yep, there was a time when submarines were ordered not to dive but to shoot back. I think that order was removed pretty quickly again though.:dead:

yeah...not one of doenitz best ideas.....he thought 4 u-boats together had a 4x more chance of destroying an aircraft....but it doesnt really work like that. when flipping a coin....your chances of getting a heads is 50/50.

4 people flipping a coin ...you still have a 50/50 chance of getting heads.....the chances of a head coming up between 4 people are increased...but not by 4x the original amount...or something along those lines!!!:hmmm::hmmm:

Your right & the truth of the matter was the Uflak boat was not highly successful in the war but in playing this game they are alot of fun. I am using Seawolf's IXC Battlesub with the Uflak tower mod on it & they are fun shooting down aircraft. I've been using this mod awhile & 4 out of 5 times you win. Now I know that equation is going to change as thbe war goes on but in tnhe meantime I am having alot of fun.

After reading this I think GWX aircraft should be slightly more vulnerable.:yawn:
