Hello.

Quote:
Can you tell me what are the mast heights of the Carriers Hiryu, Shokaku, the DD Mutsuki, the Large Minelayer, and the merchant Tug?
In my reg.manual I got these:

Hiryu - the same 31m / 101.7ft
Shokaku - the same 29m / 95.1
Mutsuki - the same 23m / 75.5
Large Minelayer - the same 21m / 68.9ft
Tug Boat - different 22.8m / 74.8ft

Pic of Tug with my cleaned up optics:



So then the shootout:

With manual targeting system OFF got these distances:
Hiryu 1431m / 1565y
Shokaku 1432m / 1566y
Mutsuki 1274m / 1393y
Large Minelayer 1389m / 1518y
Tug Boat 881m / 963y

And with manual targeting system when shooting for the flag and the mast:

Hiryu Carrier autotargeting:


flag 1462y:


mast 1504y:


I got pics and info of those other boats too:

Shokaku Carrier
flag 1524y
mast 1626y

Mutsuki Destroyer
flag 2321y
mast 1488y


Large Minelayer
flag 1514y
mast 1232y

Tug Boat

But I got tired makin jpg's and uploading to imagehost so here's all the
