Most of the 24 duds on that patrol were under runners. I just installed RFB and was interested in the torpedo failure rate so I turned on the outside view so I could watch. In fact, a majority of the failures were under runners, maybe two duds from poor impact. It was the start of the war and personally, I think this part of the game is represented very well. I remember one chapter of a book on the USS Rasher were the sub was nothing but dud after dud.
