Those speeds will greatly affect the effectiveness of U-boat guns. Too bad, while there's a lot of information on power driven guns, I couldn't find any reference to manully trained/elevated guns on the web. Nevertheless I am sure that some naval history expert around here (Sailor Steve are you there? ) will be able to provide a reasonable extimation.
Any answer?

Currently we can fully rotate our flaks by 360 deg orizontally and 180 deg vertically in just one second. Is this okay for you guys?
