I watched as the Luftwaffe pilot proceeded to miss the vessel completely, sending it into a defensive pattern that screw up my attack.

I'm guessing you would have to track the vessel(s) for a period of time and send multiple reports. War year, time and place would probably factor into the equation as well.

Has anyone ever tried it?
I never send cantact reports till I'm out of torps. I don't want anyone taking my kills.....

BTW, how long did it take till the luftwaffe showed up?
