Just wait till the first pair of aicraft show up - then we'll see if those holes are above or below sealevel.

EDIT: And speaking of airplanes, they use STUNT PLANES in SH4. What do I mean by stunt planes? Take a look at this short .

That was the one time in SH IV when I saw EVERYTHING in red. So no, I'm afraid I didn't make it out.

Never been able to torp one yet so I just duke it out with them on the surface with the deck gun, or just ignore them.

Perhaps the well knows Mk 14 depth issues? Early war Mk14s have difficulty hitting destroyers in calm seas: either with default or minimal depth setting they will, more likely than not, go under the keel without detonating.

I clearly remember setting a Mk 10 to shallow as it go then while watching it with the external cam noticed it ran literally just below the surface. I think it could even contact-detonate on Gun Boats if it runs like that all the time.



EDIT: Here's a shot taken from my latest convoy encounter. Contrary to what you guys might think, there are just two ships in the picture: a Gato class and an ex-Destroyer.
