Circular run with a torp!!!!!
I launched 2 torps at a medium composite....I like to go to external view a lot to see the action as well as the placement of torps with the different gyro angles. Anyhow...I go underwater to see the torps running and I see only 1 torp. I look around and sure enough (have the mod for good underwater vis) there is the torp on a circular run and its coming right at me...
Rang up all ahead flank and dove to 150 ft...sure enough that torp passed astern but if I had not seen the run and ordered up faster speed I believe that sucker would have sent me the way the USS Tang went in WWII.
I'm impressed with the dud torps....have had 1 circular run and a ton of prematures.
