you have two options:
- edit the \data\Cfg\commands.cfg file so that you can assign keys to the needed commands or
- install a UI mod

Or you can get down from the conning tower by moving to the rear and going down left or right at the cut outs, which take you to the weather deck. You can then stroll right up to the gun. Maybe Best just to tell your watch officer to get the gun manned, or press space while looking through the binoculars.

I highly recommend using the More Commands by Dialog mod by Athlonic. You can order the Watch Officer to have the deck gun or FLAK guns manned. To have the crew fire at specific targets, view the target through the binoculars and press the space bar to select it. The crew will automatically stop firing when the target is sunk or shot down.

Also, you can walk to the deck or FLAK guns and use them yourself.

Happy hunting!
