I hate airplanes

My U-Boat was almost destroyed just west of Brest.

Immediately after linking up with U-Flak... both of us came under attack by TEN B24's... The U-Flak was sunk by first load of wabos before it could even open fire (it tried to...too late due to short range RUb anti-aircraft modifications)

The water was only 50 meters deep... and is what saved me... boat sunk to bottom. Before I had everything under control... I lost 4 crewmen. I took many hits and had to limp back home.

That was the single most terrifying air attack I have dealt with in SH3.

The U-Flak possibly saved me though by soaking up some firepower that would have been spent on me. The DC's came so continuously at one point they sounded like machinegun fire.

AHHHHHH!!!!

... It was my shortest patrol ever... only lasted about 12 hours.
