Symbol of enemy ship sunk on the tower...

Hi to all!
I'm curious to know if in the submarine history the symbols of enemy ship sunk are relative to the sub or to the crew of the sub, for exemple, if the sub was changed the sybols are kept?
Thank you!

Some did others did not.

Many skippers felt that "decorations" just help to make them more visible.

There is a mod to add them to your sub if youd like

Actually, I believe they were not allowed to adorn the submarine with symbols or enemy flags. Only the pilots of the Airforce were able to paint noseart and such and only in the war zone....not on the home soil of the USA.

Thank you both!

What mod implement them? the skins?

As far as skins, go over to the mod forum. Some of modders have adorned the conning towers with flags, etc. The game as itself does not offer up anything like SH3 had.

Well, I wandered over there, three pages worth, and couldn't find a MOD to add conning tower decorations, pennants, battle flags and the like.

Help!

Thanks,

Frank
