October 2 1943 on patrol in Area B4 South China Sea, nearly got it.
Low flying EMILY patrol flying boat spotted at 5 miles, not detected on SD as altitude was below 1000 ft. Ordered a crash dive. Fortunately in a Balao and got to 150 ft, leveled off, few explosions above but no serious damage, just some busted lights and glass fixtures.
Anyone else enjoying the new SD in TMO? lol
Outside of testing, first time in a "real" campaign have experienced this.
I think the SJ (Early) radar may need some tweaking, seems like range may not to be raised, typically only getting contacts at 8 miles should be 10 Wondering if just me or...
