Sunk myself with a Falke.

I tried to shoot a speeding tanker that was fallen behind due to convoy zagging. A DD was closing in and obviously distracted the torpedo. The depthsetting was to match the tanker, therefore the DD was safe.

I was at periscope depth watching the DD and short before it was over me I wanted to secure the periscope. I could see my own torpedo in the water heading for my stern section.

It was a perfect hit - all hands lost. I have a screenshot somewhere.

Took me some time to search through those thousands of screens I took within several years.

ive had them go after my decoys before, lol

those torps have saved me a few times

i was able to release them at 50m, then dive down quickly while ships were right over me. 1 minute later 2 ships blew up and they all scattered. it was my last ditch attempt at staying alive though.
