Krupp,
Thankyou kindly for the feedback. It is most appreciated.

I reqiure more details such as
1. what type of vessel
2. where was the vessel i.e. at grig AN54 heading south, or English Channel
3. how did you calculate the distance and speed.

There could be several reasons for the wild speed variations that you saw..
1. If the ship is aware that you are there is performs a basic zig-zag course. This zig-zag course will take up to 2-3 knots off a ships base speed.

2. Are you saying that you were manually estimating the targets range from over 16 kilometres? If so, I would have to say that the speed variations are a result of errors in distance.

3. You were in a area that has many waypoints, i.e. coming into a port etc

I will start another thread wich will hopefully stay as pure feedback :rotfl: I will elaberate on what data will help make the feedback more reliable.

May I be so bold as to ask if you could use the Weapons Officer in your next report? That is, enable the WO assistance in the realism and he will give you an exact TDC data.
