My radar detector has worked fine until late '44. I don't know if Allied technology has defeated it, or if they now have so many planes in the air that they are finding me visually. All of my aircraft warnings are now visual, and it requires a couple of changes in strategy. One, I have to run at higher surface speeds which allow the boat to dive faster. It's just a few seconds faster, but it makes all the difference with B-24's closing at high speeds and dropping sooner. I also keep the forward torpedo room filled with crew to increase my diving angle. Life was allot easier with the radar detector!
