Freaking Osaka Harbor

Although the "Guerrilla Submarines Spyron Mod" webpage says it's only been played on Stock, people have used the campaign with TMO, and if I recall correctly, also the RFB & GFO mods.

It changes the Campaign layers to Special Missions & patrols actually conducted by US subs in WW II.

In real life, US Subs only poked their noses into harbors with relatively deep and wide passages...... and, if you wait long enough in one mission you may even be able to blow up a train, just kidding.

Happy Hunting!

Cool - I've had 2 photo missions so far (on vanilla; I've only just modded up) and both went swimmingly. In both cases I made the approach in heavy fog; first time (Shizouka) it was already foggy, second (Yokohama) I bottomed the boat and waited a few days. It worked well - and after torpedoing the ships I was assigned to photo I managed to sink the Fuso on my way out.

Perhaps the OP could try giving the weather a few days to turn to his advantage? It worked well for me, though I must stress that this was vanilla only; I haven't tried it modded up yet.
