Dicey tactic once they start maneuvering on the way in! Have to wait til they're < 600m so they dont have time to dodge, which is a little too close if you miss....
Easy for the dumb ones that bore straight in tho...
Dicey tactic but one that worked well for me playing silent Hunter ! and before that Silent Service.......Plus if you watched the film with the jap destroyer called "Bungo Pete" (My memory is crap) isn't this the tactic that the American captain used to finish of Ole' Bungo ???? True story as well I believe......

I cannot remember if that is the film or not. I loved watching that movie when I was a kid.
