Soupy Sales, holy cow, talk about a regional and time-specific allusion! My head hurts...

Well, all that fake information that a radar could never give you is why we made TMOplot. Getting real close there!

The difficulty of a no-peek shot, especially sonar only, is why it is the single most satisfying kill in Silent Hunter 4. A radar only shot with TMOplot or TMO, since you don't get automatic course and speed out of the clairvoyant radar, is almost equally challenging, but has fewer measurement anomolies, so you don't sweat as much. The sonar only method is pure terror to use and makes you look really ridiculous to your wife when you're whooping, punching your fist in the air and indian war dancing around the room after multiple hits.

The only information you should get out of your radar or sonar is bearing and range. Real radar would give some impression of a large or small target, but a large contact could also be multiple targets, so you were still guessing to some degree.
