At the same time, your crew will spot a plane in plenty of time anyway.
- There should never be a group of planes. That's vanilla behavior. If so, something is wrong with the install and/or mod(s). Should always be one plane attacks. Historically the only time there was more than one plane on a regular basis was off escort carriers with an Avenger/Wildcat pairing.
But that is not possible in SH3. One more thing AOD does that SH3 doesn't for some reason.
- Type IX's are big slow pigs. There's a reason they were historically pulled from convoy duty early in the war. I alway use VIIs.
Myself... I always run at least, 1 IX, most the rest of the careers I've done have been the VII's... with 1, maybe 2... out of the II's, just to round out the start off...

On the II careers... provided I've survived long enough to get to where a VII, shows for transfer... will run at least 1 more patrol out in the II, before bumping it over to a VII.

Vary rarely, have I done a transfer from a VII, up to a type IX U-boat... but, that's just Me...
