HEMISENT--

bit of an up-date on the sensor set up--

i'm in feb 1943--

the DD's are using their active sonar regulary as normal i'm getting pinged at the normal rate ---am attacking a convoy- now the DD's radar has slipped up a notch,(from the 42 sensor ranges etc) it's proving hugely entertaining (and a little frustrating aswell lol) getting close enough to the convoy to attack---an evarts and a fletcher are doing a damn good job of keeping me just outside torpedo range--i daren't surface because of the radar-- but they're not doing anything more than keeping me deep at this range--coming over to investigate the surface contact (if i do surface to try to get in closer -or risk a high submerged speed etc) DC-ing the area + pinging as they search--staying for around 20 minutes- then returning to the convoy to do their job--got to hand it to them it's working very effectively lol!

only two choices really--surface and hope to get closer before they use their main guns--(it's dark so it's possible) then hope to lose them long enough to get back up to scope depth and attack--

or abandon the attack retreat and repostion for another attempt--

this seems about right and an increase in difficulty level from late 1942--

going to be tough getting tonnage--theyre not getting many damaging hits with their DC attacks but never the less their doing their job most effectively-

have you had any luck with your edits? every thing seems spot on here--
