If you mean the bmp, then it is accurate. You could also print a table of sinus:

Overall the method you propose is fast and accurate.

Thanks!

I know that is acurate the bmp. - what i meant is to play with ,,map contact update - on'', use RAOFB and bmp to determine the AOB and then compare with the real one (find the real one by drawing an angle from the target cource - then the target - and the Uboat - on the map). How close is from the ,,real AOB,,?

Thanks for the table of sinus - i did not had that!

Best regards!

Congrats on 1000 posts, friend. I'm downloading the Tactics Manual now.

Seems to me if a ship is 3000m away at a 90 track, going 15 knots, you can kiss it goodbye!

I'm looking for a good method, cause I'm getting more with the cannon than the torpedoes. I can't figure the TDC out. That damned XO panel is right in the middle of my scope and I can't see the target. So I get rid of TDC and miss most of the time.

I haven't got SH5, but is there a rev/speed chart available here.
This method was used by both sides, and it's a simple matter of ship(engine) ID and prop rev count = approx speed. A 3 torp spread is usually more than enough.

I've nailed a ship at about 3-4K in visibility conditions of 50m, rain sleet and snow. This was definitely the luckiest shot.. but a good amount of calcs and obervations went into the aiming.

If you press key ''L'' then the XO panel is going in the right corner and you will have free visibility for your scope
