During 2022 I would expect you to be using plasma torpedoes by then mate ,only kidding.

Really though,I have only made one trip in my entire career to F.Town,and what I remember most is as others have said,the bloody shallow waters all around you.That should in itself tell you that travelling in this area is very dangerous,due to your relative inability to crash dive to save depths,especially from aircraft.I personally,would refrain from going here from about the beginning of 1942 onwards,when air attacks suddenly become very dangerous.If you MUST go in,I would go in during night hours,and at periscope depth (You should get away with a depth of 10 to 11 metres at night),to extra safe guard against aircraft.All depends naturally what year the player is playing in.

F.Town is not really a nice area,also due to the vast distances involved in getting there,USA east coast is much more lucrative,and more ports to infiltrate,making the long journey more worth it
