Apparentlly I must be doing the wrong thing still trying to work on it and trying to full understand the proper or rather best way to approach and intercept. This part eludes me somewhat. Naval sim games are farely new to me. I got SH3 beginning of the year and just got SH4 couple of months ago. There are some very good post on this forum that help folks like me. Sorry but the USAF did not teach proper naval tactics, approaches, and interception at least not on ships.
