Hi all captains

TIP FROM AN OLD SEAL FOR A GOOD MANUAL SHOT: Captains when hand firing make sure your target is within the range 330°-350° if coming from port (left) or 010°-030° if coming to starboard (right). In both of these cases if the boat is leaking (as is the case with the first boat in this video) or the target is badly angled (as is the case with the second boat in this video) you will have better luck to hit and therefore sink your targets. It is therefore preferable to change the course of your submarine a little to make sure you hit the target, because torpedoes are expensive. Indeed, you can see on this video at 38mins30 that I put all the machines on and that I change course. Before this maneuver the boat is at 002 degrees AOB 35°. After this maneuver the target is at 340° AOB 50, which is a very good position for a manual shot

.

Cordially
