thanks for the reply but i still do not seem to understand.

lets assume as ship is 1500m,11kn,aob90 (when the torp hits). The torp will leave the boat at about 20 degrees so it will hit exactly when the enemy ship is at 0 degrees in the periscope.problem now -- lets say the boat is 2500 m away then i would have to shoot much earlier! i do not understand how distance does not affect the path.

i will try comparing wepons officers solutions against mine.
but the initials questions still remain.

thanks for the help so far.
