I use a 7.5 nm circle to follow the AC flight path and usually get under as the plane enters this circle. The Betty usually drops a bomb string just aft of my submerged position. This is different from v1.39, or seems to be for me! What’s changed? I feel like a yo-yo in Java and South China Sea where I’ve started in early ‘42.

Prop: I have had similar things happen. I get a plane report on radar, and dive to a safe distance. The event camera pops up with a plane dropping a bomb near me (but not close enough to do harm.)
I did some experimenting:


a: dive by selecting a depth, I get the bomb
b: emergency dive 'ctrl d', no bomb
c: normal dive "d" key, no bomb. Don't forget to level off somewhere for b & c.


just some food for thought
