I get target speed by taking the length of the vessel and dividing it by the time it takes it to cross the vertical line in the scope. I then multiply that by 1.95 and it gives me the target's speed in knots. I guesstimate the AOB and try to get as close as possible to the target's anticipated track to minimize errors. It works pretty well, especially since range isn't really a factor, unless the target is beyond the range of the torpedo.
So, the question remains, perhaps correctly asked this time, is there any kind of chart like this for American torpedoes? I think they'd be just as handy in SHIV as in SHIII.

Hi , I know this is a post from like a decade ago , but could you possibly elaborate on how you are utilizing this card? Or if someone can point me to documents about it? I am not sure I understand how it functions.
