The better Skippers employed them well. O'Kane said somewhere that it was bad to have a single ended boat. Having stern tubes gave you options if faced with a last second target radical course change.....

Agreed... instead of rotating 360 on a radical course change... you can work inside a 180 degree range with stern tubes.

He is in with the Big Boys and just doesn't know it.

Technology cannot fix stupid, fellow skipper. Everything the lad posts is either mis-spelled, caustic, or inane.

Mattj - let's give him a break for awhile. He is young, and has not worked on his spelling or grammar. That stuff is not easy. As for being brash, he is that. He probably needs his butt kicked, but it ain't going to happen here. We are not in the real Navy.

Using aft torpedoes on stationary destroyers is something I have done, and on destroyers on a course that can be plotted. If not one of those, it is by coincidence or luck.

Wow. are you Serious. You guys are Wound up and serious about a FORUMS WEBSITE. and why did you delete my post. there wasnt anything wrong with it. another VERy harmless joke. but of course here come the toy soldiers with no emotions. watch i bet youll delete this post too. you act like this forums is a job. i had my opinion and people had theirs and i talked on this forum. now everones on my case. i seriously do not care that im a "troll" because this forum isnt something i do often. I REALLY dont care. seriously. this thread wasnt to get attention. i wanted to express an opinion. and ahem it says NEWBIES not expierenced guys with SH4. Im recommending new people use other subs instead of the S class for a while. the s class is a challenge. its slow, has limited weapons, and its crush depth is very low compared. Its great for a challenge. for noobs its something they probably shouldnt get into right away. ugh. and poet are you now my personal thread editer or something.

Ahem. Captain Akukla, sir, I would like to point out sir the you have mispelled "mis-spelled."

Captain sir, in the context of your post regarding the inability to fix a "stupid, fellow skipper", the mispelling of "mispelled ""(a mispelling not caught by any of our beloved, esteemed and very intelligent fellow skippers) leaves me laughing.

when the cake hits the fan, I am sure there will always be enough to serve everyone, and I am in for a piece, too.
