The Hedgehog
 

Has anyone ever seen Destroyers use their Hedgehog's?

I remember seeing the Hedgehog in a teaser video for SH3, but in all my time playing the game, not once have I been on the recieving end of a DC's Hedgehog.

Flower corvettes... these had them in a later war stage.

They're supposed to appear on most escorts in 1944; however, and this may seem odd, but I was actually sunk by a hedgehog-equipped Flower in December 1942. (which is historically accurate, but makes no sense to me in terms of game mechanics...) :hmm:

Sometimes you can watch destroyers using hedgehogs when you look up hrough the periscope... a ring of splashes appears, and then you see the DCs sinking towards you.

I see Headgehog.(end 43) A American "Begleitzerstörer" has Headgehogs and 10 Waterbombsstations !! (8xthrower and 2 normal) :o 12 Waterbombs and a Salve Headgehogs over my head...

... Ohhh yes! Furthermore I don't recall ever being able to completely avoid being damaged by them. Darn effective weapon. :stare:

The Black Swan frigates have them too. They've rattled my teeth on more than one occasion.

They're using it allright! Here's a shot of it:
