I think the game is metric and converts.

A tell tale sign is when diving, depth call outs are "33ft,66ft,101ft" and so on. Odd until you realise thats 10 metre increments.

Also "depth under keel is over 3280ft sir". Odd figure until you realise thats 1000m.

That alone and the quick patch hints to me the game is doing some conversion to its metric based backbone. Possibly conversion errors in there.

I also suspect thats why "A" crashes to desktop. A dodgy conversion getting or sending an invalid response to set depth routine.

Im going to create some scenarios now to test Mk14 on low speed right-left and left-right.
