Default Super Tough ASW Trawlers In The RN.

This little beast is made out of what?








I put 2 torpedoes into this ship.
One exploded under her hull and the other hit right at the back just short of her props. All that happens is a small fire breaks after each hit.

But it continues to sail around at 10knt as if nothing has happened.
And pound my Boat into the sea floor. I managed to get back to base but my boat was very badly mauled.

Has anyone else had this experience?

It is made of win.

And you can't destroy things made of win, cuz it leads to fail.
You must have your own weapon made of win to counter-win the winship made of win.

Yes, sometimes the choice is the ultimate one and easy: or the Trawler go down of the U-Boot go down, this small tenaciuos ships are sometimes very hard to destroy, and his posibilities of detection..., ayayay...That remember me the guy in the Sonar of the Los Angeles Class in the film "The Hunt of the Red October"; he detect you very far if you have the bad idea to accelerated a little from the 2 knts of Silent Running...,funny thing because this crafts were in general not equipped with Asdic or hydrophones
