I took out a carrier

Finally, after 2,5 years (and several near misses and other bad luck), I finally sank a carrier.

I'm doing the Liverpool - Murmansk route with my brand new IXD2 and there are not many contacts here. I stumbled upon two convoys, both had a Bogue Carrier in their rows. Both times I got in and out easily. First time I couldn't aim for the carrier, and fired at a tanker. It was destroyed after the first hit.

The second convoy I was able to maneuvre right in front of the Bogue and fired four torpedoes. Three hit and one missed, hitting a destroyer some moments later

The Bogue was destroyed the moment the first torpedo hit it.

This lane turns out to be pretty interesting, also lots of Icebergs here.
