That's indeed an S-Class. British? Well, that depends on who owns the convoy's ships. Could be American, British, or even Greek.

Aye tis an S class
US S class as a place holder for a British one we now have

Early war the Brits sent out subs with convoys
Not as escorts but as protection against suface raiders
Was only till a prearranged point then the sub would go off on patrol ( except the ON\HN convoys across the North sea where the subs were there from start to finish and some of the PQ\QP\RA murmansk convoys too)
Unfortunately if a unit is in an RND group it stays till the end
Game limitation

If the are in a convoy, they are most likely to
the last ship in an outer row.

Are underwater subs able to launch torpedoes or what they do?
Help the DD's to detect your sub?

Can't launch torpedos but can fire on you with their deck gun when surfaced and report your position to the escorts

I did not even know that they are in the game. So far, I have not come across any convoys at all, only single ships or ships in harbors. I have been chased by two or three destroyers, but that is it.

Stealth Hunter · 11-24-07, 08:41 PM

S-Class subs are fun to sink with torps, especially if you hit their torpedo/ammo reserves.

BOOM!!:rotfl:
