Different jobs require different tools.

exactly!
I found my new IX (new career) bette for the atlantic and for getting may out of one patrol though the boat really is a bus...
Just be carefull with your IX. It is bigger... so it's a..e is bigger ... and bigger a..es are spottet faster and more easily :rotfl:
That I had to find out the hard way.......
Was on my second run on a convoy and was hit by a depth charge right ontop of my fromt torp room... all tubes smashed but #1 ... I then shot with the two torps I could use (the one loaded and one left to reload) at leas 14kt with pure luck...
Will be more carefull next time.
Have fun with your IX and I really think they both are good... it is just a matter of taste.
