The formula is wrong! After some digging around these pages I found the right one, AOB = 180 - Target course + (own sub course + periscope bearing) i.e True bearing to the target), if the true bearing is bigger than 360, subtract 360 from it.

Cheers mate, it was just a quick limited experiment I did to test the theory.
