A first for me: Allied Submarines!

I have returned to SH3 after several years, and frustration with SH5. I have reloaded GWX (my pc apparently can't handle LSH3) and am adding in various mods.

My first career is with Flotilla 1, in a Duck--U-16. It was February 1940 and I was exiting the Skagerrak (I forgot to hit the script for the Kiel passage) when a lookout spotted a contact to the NW. I headed north and as I did so determined that the contact was a submarine headed east.

I cheated, of course, and used the external view keys to check its nationality. I'm far too impatient. It was British, an "S" type.

I submerged and waited in ambush. The Brit crew was clearly not as alert as mine.

At 1100 meters I launched a single torpedo, depth 2 meters, fast speed, contact detonator. Kaboom!

She was the Shark, 767 tons.

This was the first time I had ever seen an Allied submarine. I assume it's an add-on via GWX 3.

Has anyone been attacked by an Allied submarine?
