Default What is the speed of the G7a in Sh5?

What is the speed of the G7a in Sh5? In the game info the speed is given as 44-40-30.

I guess that means three different settings but I read on Wiki that the 44 kt setting was only used by torpedo boats: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G7a_torpedo

That would make the Fast setting for U-boats 40 kts. However, my manual solutions are consistently missing their targets by passing the bow a few metres in front. It could be that the target is slowing down in the last few seconds before impact (having spotted the wake of the torpedo) or it could be that the torpedo's are going faster than I think. Of course it could be that my calculations are missing something. I need to know which, so if anyone knows for certain their speed please let me know.

Cheers
Jason
