Hello fellows,

I've been playing intensively these last few days and am really getting the feel for this game. I sense that in a not too distant future I'll try manual targeting (but first I want to perfectly understand auto-targeting, I still miss too much - torpedo is too deep, or given too much lead etc...)

In the meantime I've discovered another really newb question.. What's the difference between the American Submarines? (in 1.4 + TM1.76 + RSRD) Off the top of my head the names 'Balao', 'Gato', 'Porpoise', 'SS-18', 'SS-24', 'Salmon' etc. appear. Is there somewhere a place where I can find a comprehensive list of these subs with their differences and comparative specs? To be honest I don't know anything about pacific theatre submarine warfare, so I can only randomly choose one when asked in game.

Probably one is faster, the other goes deeper, one has more torpedoes and another one has a better range? It would be cool if anyone could help me here.

Thank you very much,
good hunting,

Floven de Sorezé Stockeir
