Polish Submarine

timur-75 · 08-31-19, 08:52 AM

Hi, I found a sub when I'm doing the first mission in twos, the polish invasion. It's going underwater at 3 knots and it's night. So I only can hear him. I do able to draw a course where his going and found the speed. But thats all. How can I hit him?

Interesting. I suppose you could launch a salvo set to different depths using magnetic. If it is at periscope depth you should get it.
Let us know how you got on.

"Ping" him first though, to get range...

I can't, there is no ping button. It removed for realism purposus as far as I read at some topic in this forum. But I still can able to know the range, I'm measuring the distance using the ruler at navi map.

Is it worth to send 4 torpedo to a submarine? Also aren't they has same depth when salvo shooting?

I chased him untill morning. I have external camera option open, so I found him and marked on map. Tried 3 torpedo to find the depth. 25 meters. At the navi map I opened the tdc dials and select the manual input on. Targeted the marked position and send a single torpedo. Boom.
