I am in late 42 and am getting pummeled almost every time I surface in the day time anymore...and sometimes at nite.......it seems that when I am attacked by several Hurricanes at once....my flak gunner picks the farthest one or does not open fire at all until they are past the boat....what is up here??? I dont like to see the depth charges whizzing past the conning tower....its a little unsettling......

If it's more than 1-2 aircraft, man it yourself. I've heard of the AI focusing in one one plane regardless of range and ignoring the others. Better safe than sunk .

Yep.....I have rechecked the settings as far as which a/c to target....but I think you may be right...it may be better to do it yourself.....
