Often the japanese planes have dived at me but nothing had happend besides me shooting them down. This time I got a well placed bomb right at my sub causing about 75% hull damage. I thereafter made a crashdive to avoid further damage of this lethal bird. At about 40 meter my submarine broke apart ending my life and career.
Almost the same thing happend to me last night. A few hundred miles out from Midway, I got hit by a plane just as my conning tower was going under. I had a hull damage of 40 and was just entering a crash dive when I thought "better not".

Surfaced again, made my way back to Midway but the refit did nothing for my hull damage. All other systems were fixed except for that.
