If my attack periscope is destroyed I'll continue a patrol using just my observation periscope. If they are both destroyed, I have no choice but to return to base.

It is possible to attack with hydrophones only. Just calculate speed as normal, get the operator to follow the contact, set up your solutiuon and fire when the bearing is around whatever firing angle you choose. Try to fire 5 or so degrees before he reaches the target point as the hydro bearing seems to come from amidships or the rear of the ship.

The Hydro-Phone attack is kinda tricky but can come in handY!
