I assume you got the Dick o'Kane method from one of his books, both of which I have read , but not recently. If you did get the method from his books, can you tell me which one and approx where so I can re-read that section?
You probably already know this but maybe some people do not: once you establish the amount of lead in degrees for a given target speed, that angle of lead is good no matter what the range. In the example you gave in the above referenced post, a lead of 9 deg was used based on the speed of the target. If you have an accurate target speed calculation, all you have to do is aim the torpedoes the given amount of degrees ahead of your desired point of impact and you should get hits.
I believe your method is sound, but have not tried it. After I try it I may have a few more questions. Thanks for your help. Joe S
