Default U-boat Vs British sub

It's 25th Jan. 1940 in the vacinity of Scapa Flow. I detected a fellow u-boat there and he kept following me around. Mini-Wolfpack, I said to myself. Never expected to find another boat but was glad for the company. So, I kept my search for the Carrier and suddenly detected something. It was a British sub racing away on the surface! Deck gun blazing at high speed. I hit the sub some blows and he suddenly veered off to the left and submerged. Argggh! lost him! But then a faded red icon appeared and I got my very first enemy submarine kill!

I met a small british u-boat pack myself in the mediterranean. It was foggy so I was able to carefully do a deck gun attack with complete surprise. I killed it on the surface. The last sub dived to a depth of some 80-100 metres. You can see the sub on the picture here, the one on the right is the british and the left one is mine.

I never did find that Carrier, though.

Great Kill Davy, I've sunk two and haven't gotten any credit for the kills.
