Also the 37mm on the IXB is useful for killing unarmed merchants, of which there are plenty till 1941. You can get alot of extra kills per patrol using this weapon early on. Once the merchants start coming with guns on them, I would wait until nightfall and approach very close, and use the 37mm to destroy the single cannon that most merchants have. Once that is done you can use your 105 to sink em with a few shots. Even with the ai, all the shots strike home at very close range.
