However, does this only work for certain angles on bow? Are there any conditions where this method won't work?
Thinking about it, if you've got a really shallow or really steep wide angle on bow then surely a ship of given length will take less time to transit your scope than it would with a AoB of 90?
Is the U-jagd only accurate for for AoB of 90? Or is it just a case of being less accurate the further you get from 90?

Best results with U-Jagd to avoid errors, is to use it when your sub is not moving at all.
And best is to have at least between 90° and 45° AOB.
Where it comes to be really difficult with U-Jagd, is to get correct speed of destroyer moving fast or very fast!
Quite impossible with our U-Jagd. You’ll have to visually estimate (as in real)
