I scanned the convoy - some big tankers, cargo ships, good, good, and then WOAH! A battleship! A quick scan through the identification manual identified her as the HMS Nelson.
It was my first mission with manual targetting.

Congratulations!
My only beef with GWX is that the BBs escorting convoys are somehow too easy to succesfully attack. Maybe in GWX 1.04 they will make small course or speed alterations.
