Default Gues which one is the destroyer!

Just for fun;

Experienced Kaleuns whill probably know this right away, but it might be fun just to try and pick it out from the bunch! Take a guess!

Btw; there is another escort off to the right side in the picture on purpose. It helped blast me almost out of the water after a convoy attack. AVG is correct, but there is one other in the picture.

There's another one at the back of the convoy (4th from the left, going across the convoy's course)

I picked out the smoke column that's 4th from the left. Reason - the slant angle indicates it's going faster than the rest. Ergo, it must be an escort.

But I don't understand why the one on the extreme right is also an escort. The smoke is vertical - perhaps it's stopped & listening?

Bow angle 0 is my guess. He could be coming your way. pictures a little fuzzy though, can't say for sure, but that would be my working assumption.

I guessed this one because it is some distance from the crowd.
