I understand the desire to make the detection range small since aircraft are hard to see, but will it eventually make the type 9 practically unusable? (I guess that's technically accurate, but meh....) |
The worst danger for submarine was the plane. I can give advice to use deck awash. This helps to run away quicklier.
In my patrols I keep away from air coverage zones. I have played my career on type 9 submarine until it was sunk in 1943. And there were no serious troubles with airplanes. In 1943 you will have a radar warning reciever wich helps to escape from air attack.
