Greetings all.

Some Type V (I believe that is the number, pardon me if I am wrong... at lunch at work right now so I can't check) torpedos have become available to me at the end of 1943.

I'm using the Real U-boat mod.

Anyone ever have any luck with the use of homing torpedos on a pursuing DD? What range is good for firing? I'm experimenting with aft tubes only right now.

What's your technique?

I'm going with magnetic setting of a depth around 6 meters. Too deep? I'm not going to try an impact shot.
