I've just come back to the latest version of FOTRS after a few months away, great job on the battery recharge rates. I just encountered a Sentaka Dai sub and managed to fire a 3 torpedo spread at him from 1,000yds and got him with one hit just aft of midships. I expected him to sink pretty quickly but he just slowed down to 3kts. I managed to position for a bow shot and he spotted my scope and let fly with everything he had. It wasn't until my bow shot hit him that he started to sink. All the books I've read show that a sub needs a miracle to survive one torpedo hit, is there anyway to make the damage model on the jap subs more realistic?
