Try LukeFF's advice here. Or, you might need to check in menu.txt under Data\Menu. Nice work btw!

Sorry mate, can't help you there. 1.5 changed the way it's displayed, and I don't have it.

I finally got a chance to try out the Mk. 28 on a target. It was a lone, large freighter south of Tokyo Bay. I approached in foggy conditions at night and launched one Mk. 28 on the surface after cutting engines. Range to target was about 2600 yards, speed was estimated at 10 knots (turned out to be 9 kts) and my AoB estimate was only off by 8 degrees. Depth was set for 12 feet.

In my opinion the torpedo should have hit the target, but it didn't. It must have run far enough ahead of the target not to pick up the engine noises, but at a 1kt difference, it should have been a very close call. IMO the Mk. 27 warhead resembles a 90-yr-old man with hearing aids, but I don't know how sensitive the acoustic device was in real life.

I myself usually get them from the rear with the "jap" accoustic torps, this way the torpedo can sniff its way to the target. will take a look to see the differences between the two, one might be more sensitive.
