Time (in decimal minutes) = (Distance/Speed)x60
Feel free to use, modify, make suggestions, etc. Obviously the last column is for Mk48 run-time - the most common torp I fire.
I can't do advanced trig - so all of the ww2 subsim equations (intercept course, torpedo lead calculation, etc.) make no sense to me...probably not as useful in DW anyway...
Cheers

A minor edit. Forum doesn't seem to allow multiple spaces to align things.
