Default Zaun II use

Gents:

I just completed successful Northren sortie around England in a XXI. I had two of them on board. I modded to get the sub by June 43. I cam e upon a convoy heading east to northwest english ports.... becvaseu of mis calutiing the convoys speed I had to fire at 16 yards... sank onr t3, one c2 and one liberty ship with 5 tarps.... I saved the last .... the Zaun for the de to my south .. I went noisy deliberatlely to make him locate me and run at me... he did..... I had turned to him... locked on him fired the Zaun and dove to 100 meters fast and went left..... and quiet....... used the f12 key and watched ..... he took one in theenginge room... did not sink him... I slowed down reloaded... and hit the convoy again with ladder shots.... went to F12.... dove and went in op direction .... and went to 225 meters..... watched the show.... depth charges no where near me... and sank total of 5 ships....

Using the senser pack buy Jumgman... nice..... useingb the snorkel at 15 when ever sea state allows.... never have problems with battery only the co2 limits endurance.

Didm't tje XXI have a rwr on the snorkel to get realy warning on incoming ac? Also... I put up both periscopes so ai crew can watch for ac.... works bueatifullly.... Good luck and good hunting...
