My pleasure Herr Kaleun as I regard the Uboot as a gun ship with augmentation eels! Walk to the ladder on either side of the con and proceed down to the deck and then forward to the gun: click on the gun (gun crew appears)and then on the upper left hand binocular function when ready for a scope view of the target where you will also find your ammo preference (AP or HE). Use the mouse wheel for barrel elevation. When using the gun yourself, do NOT use F5 as AI gunners will continue firing at anything else and waste unintended ammo after you exit the station; Use 'SHIFT- U' to return to the bridge W/O having to use the ladder...very useful and time saving when an escort has the range on you and is closing fast! It helps to promote the gunner efficiency guy early on in the career so that reloads are faster when you are doing the shooting. I do all my own gunnery and only one eel per ship with gunnery to finish off cripples.
