Default The Mighty GWX Four Stacker Liner

I have seen it only once, about one year ago, while playing GWX 1.0, I was patrolling the sealanes between Spain and the Azores. It was in the middle of a northbound SL convoy. Unfortunately, before placing myself for the attack, a plane spotted my periscope and attacked me with a well placed depthcharge that destroyed my entire conning tower forcing me to abort the attack!

Now,my question was: Did someone ever managed to sent this bad girl to the cold bottoms?

I caught up with 2 of them in a convoy just west of Spain but in a bad storm. Before I had a chance to put a fish in them, the weather 'sank' them!
