Weird RUB encounter with "Large Cargo"

Yeah - the 11,200 sounds about right for what the recog manual was showing - I remembered it as being 11-12K - and the ship I was attacking definitely had a new look with the big smokestack that I remember seeing on the one biggie I saw back when they were 17K, and the "large cargo" in the recog manual was the only thing that looked remotely like what I was seeing (and I saw it close up on the surface for quite a while as I was gunning it to death, so I don't think it was a case of mistaken identity).

If it happens again, I'll try to remember to take a screen shot

BTW - In my NKGN.cgf file, it's listed as 11,600 displacement. I'm running RUB1.43, with the RUB1.43 patch and the Beery Flotilla 1.44 mods (along with the Funkmod and my mod that uses historic u-boat aces for my officer's faces, neither of which would seem likely to have anything to do with these ship types)
