Attempted approach by one of two DD's standing by somehow detected NAUTILUS during approach (believe a unobserved aircraft may have spotted) at 5500 yards and prevented attack. The six hour depth charge attack damaged the NAUTILUS and prevented a attack
At 1909, the SORYU slid beneath the waters. Note: The was due to the fire causes damage mod by TheDrarkWraith. The ship burned all afternoon, a few explosions where heard while I was submerged. Seems fire finally caused the loss, pretty cool. Disappointed did not get to finish the carrier off with torpedoes though.
Smoke after SORYU sunk. Many survivor rafts in water.
Smoke/flames after SORYU sunk. Many survivor rafts in water.
