Granted I was only 50km or so off the east coast of England/Scotland but twice during my last patrol I was accosted by airplanes in Sept 1939!

First one was just a random patrol flying about, second one was most likely called in by a merchant I was chasing (box intercept) that must've spotted me.

Both cases I simply crash dived the second I saw her and nothing else happened, never even heard them drop bombs.

This was GWX 3.0, of course.

They're even worse in NYGM.

They seem to have a range of around 350km from all the bases in Scotland/Nth Ireland, and that's early 1940. Stay on the surface from pre-dawn to dusk and you WILL get attacked within an hour at most, and then within 3-25 minutes upon surfacing if you've been attacked previously.

I find it a bit excessive, truth be told.....
