I mean it would make sense to mdel that, especially giving the nature of what caused the duds. (The pin being crushed from the force)

Possibly true. Would be news to me though :hmm: Ill have to consider this if it can be confirmed.
However in retrospect I still would have used the fast settings. Ive attacked this type of convoy before and watched in disbelief as they altered course nearly as soon as the torps left the tubes resulting in a bunch of misses.
So now I get in close and fire them at fast so even if they do react they prob wont be able to in time. Out of a salvo of 4 you would think at least one would go off.  |

But out of 4 torpedoes, you would think at least one would go off, but certainly makes you realize how some skippers were convinced the malfunctions were caused by an error in OP, not an equipment malfunction
