You're not stupid, Rob, the fault lies with the Devs for not including nautical miles with a nautical sim...

km x .54 = nm

btw: If you don't want to wait 17:45 to link up with the enemy...you can meet them half way in between their starting point to the interdiction site. Instead of them travelling 142 nm, how about 80 nm or 148 km?
You'd have to change course to about 234° and travel about 97 nm. Use the same Distance = Speed x Time formula to figure your speed to arrive at that point when they do.

All the best,
