..now theres a word you have a hard time working into an everyday conversation,much less one on a forum for subsimmers... ...But I'll do my best to not sound like one. Probably fail.


I got a load of Mk 18s for this patrol and ran into a 5 merchant convoy protected by 4 escorts. Fired two fish @ each of 2 merchants and 1 each @ 2 others...in other words 6 torps at 4 ships.

To my surprize all 6 hit and exploded at ranges from 1200-2400 yds. To my bigger surprize all 4 went down though it took the 4th pigeon 3-4 hours to finally deep six it.

This is a record for me- 4 ships down with manual targeting.

In the Am bright and early I'm sounding the happy hunting horn and will try to pick off the sole survivor and just maybe one of his escorts.. hey..they probably wouldn't want to report into Rabual with the tale they have lost an entire convoy anyway...
