Running the new TMO 2.5 with RSRD too.

Its January 1942, and I was tasked to perform choke point patrol ops in the Makassar Straight, when I ran into what appeared to be what I can only describe as a dedicated Japanese Hunter-Killer group, what I ascertained to be 4 Destroyers operating as a group.

It was approaching dark, with the sun setting in twilight, but the darnest thing is.....no sooner had my lookouts spotted them and I was trying to ascertain what they were through my binos, the two lead destroyers opened fire pretty much immediatly!!!

It was no big deal, I just dove down to 350ft and snuck away in my Sargo class.

But.....how did they know I was there!!! They spotted me from a ridiculous range and opened fire!!
