That is my quick analysis.
and a good one at that.

I've played RFB&RSRDC for most of my SH4ing and I securely enjoy it's realism (Hogan's alley, limited-no air traffic until you reach japan, real availability dates, the list goes on)
I do miss some of the finer points of TMO, like the new construction flotillas, and the flotilla up in Holy Loch, Scotland. The destroyers are good in RFB, but absolutely positively deadly in TMO, I kinda miss that.

as for manual targeting/attack map. I fire all my shots from the periscope, firing from observations and sent data to the TDC, I feel much more macho that way
but it also feels much more realistic for me, I get up close and personal with the merchants, thanks to RFB's real damage model. And a real skipper can't consult his map when he's maneuvering the sub to take a shot at <1000 yards.
