Well lo and behold it turned out to be a Japanese sub and at 23:00 hours I got me solution set and fired 4 torps at it with two hits.(The other two were duds and considering how bad early war torps are i'm not complaining at the success rate for this attack.) It proceeded to sink like a rock and Japan was deprived of one sub.

Nice.Those are always fun to sink, esp since it's a rare encounter.Always felt it was a huge oversight by the devs not to include enemy AI subs in Sh 4.Luckily the modders stepped in and at least we have them on surface and will react with deck gun.Seems like before long we will have enemy subs that submerge and can fire torpedos.Imagine being on your way home and suddenly you are dodging torpedo or two.
Nice job.
