MK 10's do run deep as well, not as much of a problem as MK 14 in 1942, but still run deep.

Years ago playing TMO I was on the surface running from a DD. At around 4K yards, I fired 2 stern torpedoes. And wouldn't you know it both hit. Couldn't believe it. I've bagged a DD or 2 with a down the throat shot.


Don't know if this is an issue or not but twice during Alaska patrols when my objective is to patrol near Attu for 5 days I never get a mission complete even after 10 days or more. It's been so long since I've played I don't recall if this is a stock or mod thing.
