Performed 3 more reloads. This time I was targeting Kuma on the side of the convoy. sank her 3 times
On first attempt, I was lucky and hit 3 different Troop ships before they reached shallow waters, none sunk. On second just 1 or 2, one of them took torp midships and another aft. graphics shown both propellers and rudder broken off, yet the ship still kept enough speed to keep up with convoy and so managed to escape, even though water was over railings on cargo decks bow and aft. On third I hit just 1 Troop transport, but it looked well - ship was heavily listing had fires over boat deck and one engine knocked out while second was barely moving. managed to overtake it before shallows and as torp was about to finish it...CTD
