Dissapointing to say the least

Nice pics Kylania.

I also have a funny story about sinking an escort inadvertently. I had finally found the carrier in the early '40 sink the carrier mission, and I set up a perfect 90 degree angle shot from about 1500m on a pitch black night. I didn't know a thing about the carrier's damage resistance, so I fired all front four torpedoes.

Well, my Critical Hits mod must have kicked in with a big one upon the first impact, because the carrier immediately was destroyed, but still sat there and soaked up my second torpedo. However, it was dead in the water, so my last two fish sailed right past its bow. I went full rudder and dropped to 75 meters hoping to slink away in the opposite direction now that my mission was complete. About a minute later I hear "Torpedo Impact!"...twice. My last two torps had pummeled an escort (that I had never even seen) on the outer ring of the carrier's escort group.
