Aircraft In Aces Of The Deep?

[ChristopherTarana]

The really fast movers turned out to airplanes! I always patrol at 1024x, the planes were moving like blurs! I was hanging around the chart screen and selected the target. Then I slowed down to 1x time and hit the I key. The crew said the target was an aircraft! All my career losses have been to aircraft!

Thanks!

Oops ! Yeah, airplane = dive.

You can try and outsmart aircraft on the surface long enough so that they don't scratch your hull and your brave crew can shoot off there wings!

I usually do this and it helps nwith evoiding the planes:

-Do radical corse changes (75+°) when the plane starts getting close to 1k or 500m

-I always patrol at full speed so when the plane is at the same ~1km I speed up to flank speed

I don't like taking the chance myself, plus in real life diving was recommended



But to each their own !

KptLeunant, in reality aircrafts were the nightmare of a u-boat instead of a fierce escort. Back in the WWII most of the brave u-boat skippers were killed by aircrafts which ended their careers rapidly.
