actually it is just the oposite, due to increased hull pressures the shock wave from the depth charge is even more lethal at deeper depths. i think you are correct in that the shockwave has a much reduced effective range due to the pressure. |
Hmm, I read in "A diary of a u-boat commander" that the deeper you were, the closer the depth charge had to be to you to do any damage.
