Huh? Huh? (one for each post.)
How do you keep periscope at 0 or 180 degrees and just in front of the bow of the target without turning your boat or "twisting" the periscope. I assume "twisting" does not mean bending the periscope, but refers the act of of rotating or swiviliing iit. Just for fun, let's assume the target is a big, fat Yamato BB, plodding along at a meager 24 kts.
