The thing is i didnt get credit for it! I'm running no other mods than SH commander and GWX patched with "My favorite dials". I'm 100% realistic and that miss is a major event. Please comment.
As far as I understand, you have to be within a 50 Km radius of your prey to get the credit for that kill.
Now, in your case, SH3 might have considered that ship a kill while you were far away of it (more than 50 Km) and you arrived just when it was going down.
The other option is that another u-boat or aircraft finished your job in your absence.
Those are the only 2 possible explanations that I can think of.
