So now that I have the positions of the guns and conning tower right I have a question about the center of the turrets.


I noticed when looking on the overhead view of the sub that both 5" guns are somewhat off center. Not much.

Looking at the sub, bow side facing up, the rear facing gun is left of center and the fore facing gun is right of center.


Was this a typical setup? Of should I jump back into the dat and tweak the guns accordingly.


If I had to put a perspective on both, the amount is about the width of the muzzle. If I had to explain it as correct I would say it was to prevent nailing the antenna on a straight shot but I dont know, and I cant find any overhead pictures of wwii subs to compare.


Its not an issue otherwise, just cosmetic, if I look straight down.
