Hello all,

I was wondering at what range and what speed can you expect to be sighted at night from merchants in GWX?

I was performing a surface attack in November 1940 on a very dark night ( no moon ) and moderate seas, standard speed and was no spotted until about 1500 meters.

Is it possible to get closer or should I be charging in loosing off my torps and diving away?

I know radar will make this tactic difficult if not impossible, but until then I want to improve my surface attacks.
