A minimum can get close enough to fire from a reasonable range, come close enough to escorts without always being spotted and shot into pieces immediately. Key is finding the proper balance, don't want to make it too easy but no impossible as it became the preferred and common tactic. Thus why I modified the radar of IJN. IJN radar in stock and most mods had Allied style effectiveness which eliminated night surface attacks but in real life they were routinely pulled off. I adjusted radar so it is possible but is more difficult when radar equipped escorts are around.

LOL, now you have another mod regarding the jap radar? Good thing, I'm at the start of 1942 and no jap radar is in use yet... at least I don't believe they had them that early. This will be another mod to blend into the FOTRS files I suspect. Please post more change info when you have the time. Thanks.
