15 attempts to sink a HC

I'm pretty sure stock SH4 has a major problem with the field of view and the tick marks on the periscope which will actually give you some really wild readings for distance to target. This might be what's happening.

Stock is iffy. I usually just eyeballed it in the TDC. Checking out some mods might be your best bet.

Task forces can be tricky, if you want a easy way to get speed find a way to send a contact report, then look at the message you sent. Itll give you the speed, and thats the most important part of the targetting.

Not sure you're complete targeting method, but sounds like some errors are being made somewhere. Give it time, you'll learn how to deal with any situation and sink big ships.
