Nice find

I looked at the pics of the ships that had torp damage and wondered what went thru the crews mind the moment the torps hit with NO warning and a shiver ran up my spine.

Personally now I think SH3 and SH4 have gotten as realistic as I want them to get.

Thanks for this stlkrash, that's got a detailed account of what happened to the USS Tang after she torpedoed herself with a circle runner - fascinating and quite grim.
