GWX enemy aircraft... WOW.

I'm looking forward to running the gauntlet of aircraft in '43 onwards.
I'm currently on my 6th patrol in Dec. '40. (happy times for me!)

Sounds like you have been lucky and only come across rookie planes! Watch out in future, especially for planes carrying rockets.

Squadron Leader Terence Malcolm "Sub Killer" Bulloch DSO&Bar, DFC&Bar Attacked over 25 U boats and sank over 20 in his B-24 Liberator. In one action he held 2 packs of u-boats (21 boats in total) away from a convoy south of Iceland. He sank one, damaged another and then kept the rest away from the ships by constantly finding them and flying over them whilst spraying the decks with MG fire.
Only 2 ships where lost in the convoy and most of the 21 U-boats had to give up the chase.
