Actually, all I'm running is RUb 1.45. Haven't downloaded GWX, yet.
And the next patrol after this one was much worse. Torpedoed a small freighter, went to the assigned grid, etc. Went chasing after another convoy and once I was within about 15km, I was attacked by aircraft again. Couldn't dive in time and was strafed and bombed before the boat went under. Lost the First Watch officer and another crewmember.
Should have left that convoy alone and returned to base, but I knew what was inside that convoy. An aircraft carrier. Couldn't get close enough for a shot on the carrier, but managed to sink a destroyer that decided to chase me. I lined up the torp at 180deg and lured it into my trap.
The torp went under it and armed/detonated right at stern. It was hilarious watching the thing sink. It did a wheelie, complete with the searchlight flitting frantically in all directions. Then it went straight up and down and sank stern first. :rotfl:
