Find (search for) 'Nisgeis' 3D TDC and RADAR Range Unit' MOD. This MOD is included with TMO 2.5. There are several very good tutorials on how to set up and use the TDC/RADAR to aim torpedoes. You have to use both the PPI scope AND the 'A' scope to get a good fix on a target. The actual range is found on the 'A' scope. There is also a 'readout' above the 'A' scope that gives the bearing. You can't see this readout until you tilt the view up. The tutorials tell all, and there are even a couple of 'school'-type adventures to practice using them.

The 3D TDC mod doesn't work on models pre-Gato-class boats. It does work on Balao-class. Not real sure about the Tambor-class (I've never used one).

Good Luck
Good Hunting!
