Correct its OLC...and it has the AOB indicator...using MKIId version of OLC.

BTW, stern shots are exactly the same. Just select the stern tube. Select the AOB angle as you view it in the periscope/Uzo. The needle needs to point to the side that the target is going to in the view.

You're absolutely right. Hit F6, set speed to zero, select the stern tube, and turn the scope until the gyroangle reads 0 (for me it's a hair to the right of the 180º mark). Then back to the TDC, input the target speed, AOB as you said (the arrow should point in the direction you see the ship going), set the range, turn the TDC on, turn the scope, ID the target, and fire when ready.

It wasn't nearly as hard as I'd worried it might be.
