From which date did they use those charges ? 30 feet or roughly 10 metres distance are certainly close ... Since the depth charge "size" does not seem to change over the years in SH3, how should this be modelled ? Maybe a later version of the SH3 commander could adapt to this at a later time, copying other depth charge files to the appropriate folder at certain dates (?).
