Greetings!

I have a question about just how accurate RSRDC recreates TF's and Strike groups of Jap forces?

Because I'm now on my second patrol on good ol' sugar boat, and I know that Jap Strike force, that kicked the hell out of ABDA fleet at Sourabaja doorstep, was spotted Feb 27 1942 about 30 miles southeast of Bawean island.

So I waited there for them to show up, patrolled all the way west through Java sea to intercept them. On Feb 27 I patrolled 30 miles southeast of Bawean, and started to move north, slowly. About 3:00 AM Feb 28, during routine dive and sonar check I heard multiple screws, long distance.

So, I presume, that I heard THE TF I searched for, but it was late for day and about 25-30 miles north off the expected position.

P.S. Sorry for my english ^)
