Depth charges - http://www.uboat.net/allies/technical/depth_charges.htm

Personally I find depth charges a hell of a lot scarier than hedgehogs as depth charges don't need to contact the boat in order to do massive damage where as the hedgehogs need to contact the surface of the boat

[pickinthebanjo]

I think I'm Getting closer to finding the manual

[JMV]

I wish you good luck, because it's been looked for, for a good while.....
without success.

[pickinthebanjo]

There must be one somewhere, and I beleive it would contain some useful information

[Hitman]

There IS actually one, but it is in the US national archives, microfilmed. Same as many other manuals with lots of useful technical details. The vast majority of them have not yet reached the internet, but I hope somewhen they will.
