You have several sonar contacts coming from your starboard side. 30 deg to 57 deg.

I'd watch them to see what way the are heading and try to cut them off. Only problem is morning is here or a few hours away so you may be seen if you flank it on the surface.

It also tells you based on the green torp line ... that if you fire that fish, you are not going to hit anything.

Usually on my screen .... the blue lines more often than not indicate Japanese capital ships (DDs) most of the time, I'd say you're looking at a good sized task force.

You have got to be Joking,say what!?

Your subs heading is 030 ,& There 6 warship sonar contacts off your stbd.quarter,range greater than 1600 Yds. @ least One has been visualy sighted.
Position keeper info.is last target locked.(old) Also,to day light to be surfaced,& you are a little above PD.

Look at the text message:

"Ship spotted, Sir. Bearing 046. Long range."
