Default Dead by collision with an aircraft!?

Hey guys!

Is SH3 a simulator or what?!
You know how you rarely take any damage from aircraft attacks when surfaced?
Well, don't shoot them down so they crash on your boat,
unless you want to be dead by collision with an airplane.

Something like that happened to me. I shot a plane down and crashed onto the sub's hull, but it received no damage. Nevertheless, its still funny

No, I was just outside the southwest of England.
BF12 (or if it maybe was the quadrant east of BF12).

I've died Sooo many times by being hit from dying aircraft...
If you think about it though... A Sunderland (BIG plane) going at a good clip and hitting a sub WOULD potentially cause catastrophic damage.

If you want to avoid having the RAF think that you are a carrier, change your engagement range to medium or short range. It means that when they go boom, they fly over you, rather than into you!

Enjoy the duck season while it lasts!!
