Aft Shots

In manual targeting, aft shofts, is the procedure basically the same except the stern is on the target rather than the bow?

As far as i can remember...check your AOB...

...and that should do it.

What Succat said. When you switch to rear tubes, just make sure your AOB is correct.

Except that I cannot remember that the OLC Gui (which this looks like) had the AOB indicator there as in the picture. I had it in the 3rd dial. The first was bearing afaik. I'm puzzled by this picture.

Seems like somebody made a preference mod out of it.

Correct its OLC...and it has the AOB indicator...using MKIId version of OLC.

BTW, stern shots are exactly the same. Just select the stern tube. Select the AOB angle as you view it in the periscope/Uzo. The needle needs to point to the side that the target is going to in the view.
