Many players call this Dick O'Kane's method, but I believe the official name was "constant bearing" method. There's a good presentation on this https://www.scribd.com/presentation/...O-Kane-Method#
I've used it sucessfully to shoot torpedoes even w/o scope, purely by sonar/radar readings, although that requires some practice, as in some cases you can't get the sonarman to monitor the target you really want.. *)



I tend to agree with you on all three counts - except I'm too frustrated with the gun crew that I do aim myself - unfortunately, the crew is as bad at gunnery as it's excellent at position keeping.

*) here I shoot by radar only, in the episode that I'll be uploading later this week I'm shooting by sonar only.
