I've been wondering how other Kaleuns patrol for sometime too, and like a previous poster said, I think it comes down to personal preference. I like to do long zig zag courses along the projected course of the merchants. Submerge every 3-4hrs for a sound check during the day and stay down all night at 2kts and I always manually check at those intervals too. I wonder how many radio contacts I miss doing this however

This is early war practice and I've no doubt I will be forced to alter my tactics somewhat as the war progresses but so far it's working for me.

I'll post a screenshot in this post later in the evening, it'd be interesting to compare to others.

Good question Doolar Semler
