Default 44,000 tons in one convoy!!

well, this can happen when you meet a convoy with the Hiro and Shokaku in it
there was also a third smaller one that i hit and didn't sink....
overall, 2 fleet carriers is a good haul for me

Ah, you cheated, admit it! You used depleted uranium-tipped torpedoes didn't you?

I must say, after all the Fleet Carriers i've sunk (Not, that's a bad thing), that it doesn't take APDU Torpedoes to sink one, just a couple of clean underkeel shots anywhere forward of the screws and you have a capsizing carrier

What is impressive is that you managed to take 2 of them out before the TF starts zigzagging and the Destroyers start swarming all over you
