Guys what do you do when you dont have a time to use tdc in case of fast closing attacking destroyer? ( Except diving :-) )when there is no time for bool****:-)
In range (300-500) What I do I just trying to make a shot a 10-30(depends of range and assumed speed of DD) degrees ahead of destoyer's course. if I have more than 1 torpedo to shot I send another one with up to 10 degrees on gyro angle). And if destroyer is closing with AOB 0 and at 350 -10 bearing I just shoot straight. This method gives me success rate of 60%. Its actually just a litle bit more than 50/50 chance.
I m very interested in your advice.
Thanks.
