How do you deal with frequent enemy aircraft attacks and the need to surface to recharge? Especially with flat seas and practically no fog. You cannot stay submerged for hours on end like you could in the stock version. Wondering what other katpitan's strategy is in this case?

Also, what are the protuberances on this plane for? Radar?

1. A loud, discordant noise.
2. A hangover.
3. A state of depression or bewilderment.

The poles on the rear fuselage are radar. If you mean the two just about in-line with the wings, the small dome would be for sextant 'star shots'. The little bomb shaped thing just ahead of that might be some kind of air-data probe.
