In April of 42 I just sent 10 fish out at a couple big targets. Of those 10, 7 blew up before reaching target, 2 ran too deep, and one made contact.

Such is life I guess. I'm curious if this is about right for that time period. Wind was 15 m/s, and all torps were set to about 20ft deep.

TIA,
Matt
