Huh, that must explain some things I have encountered. Is it modeled in FOTRSU and TMO? Or is it also in stock SH4 too?

One time in maybe mid-1942 (while playing either FORTSU or TMO), I was attacking a task force and sank one of their BBs and damaged a cruiser with a shot that missed the original BB I targeted. I came under heavy fire from Jap DDs and I got sick of being hounded by Jap destroyers who wouldn't leave and so I brought the boat up to periscope depth and fired a snapshot when the closest DD that had just finished its depth charge showed its flank. The resulting torpedo impact sank the DD and the destroyers left.
