They suck :rotfl: .
I've been held down by River Class DEs for as long as nine hours. I can't be sure it was always a River 2 though as I don't use external view. I'm also not sure I fear them any more than a Buckley... ![]() I'm in Oct 43 and haven't been sunk. Yet. Great Pics!!!

the distinguishing diffierence between River FF type 2 and the River DE (Buckey too) is a hedgehog. that should make them easy to ID even without external. if he held you down 9 hrs did he really suck or did the experience? MM |

![]() ![]() This was not a good moment to be sitting on the floor of the Grand Banks. Somebody on here has it as a quote it was said by an american sub skipper but I cant remember which one but it is totally true for the Rivers here "Firing a torpedo at a destroyer and missing is like hitting a wildcat in the ass with a banjo" Last edited by Mush Martin; 02-09-07 at 09:19 AM. |

The ships only suck beacuse they're evil and deadly. Gosh Darn things'll come after you even if you don't sink a ship first. That's just plain unfreindly
![]() Love the Hedgehog addition! Keep up the GREAT Work! ![]()

Pain in the
![]() On one occasion a convoy came across my path so I went deep and sat there for 15 or 20 minutes and everything looked good as they got closer then the next thing it's ear plug time. Come on how the hell did they know? Did Bernard fart and they heard that no, Bernard is off the beans.

honestly im not sure how it happened i might have saved a dat
when I had the mission intelligence jacked up thats all I can think that may have done it. but the overall impression I get from fighting them myself is that not only do they have claws and teeth but somehow they seem a little smarter than the average bear..............

Are a cheesy remark. :rotfl:
