hello,
I started my mission at Manilla, on a S-18...
then on December 20, 1941, I'm at Davao, 125.40 E, 7.N
there is about 20 ships, plus a strong screen of 2 destroyers + 4 aux subChaser
the defensive screen is at every 1500 m encircling the cargo and troop transports, 1 naga light cruiser
see attachement
my torpedoes are mark 10, range 3500. 30Kt
to be in range of cargo (maxed) I would be about 1500 m of the aux subchaser.
oh, and it is 6am. calm sea. the mark 10, will look like arrows...
MOD = TMO most recent
I had the idea of going under...
or to wait and attack when they get out of the bay.
or wait at night, I'll be CO2 since noon...
I cannot outrun them ( 13kt against 17 or 30+ for destroyers.)
the 2 destroyers are at the east.
maybe I could outflank them. to come from the north,
the I will be very far from the open sea.
( does 1 kt make same noise as 3kt.?)
any idea.
