Historically they rounded to the nearest half a knot, so I would suggest doing the same. Also, make sure your tubes are flooded prior to shooting, as that will cause a delay if you don’t remember to do that.

Here is a video of me doing all of the above, in an entire engagement. I think I don’t do the fixed wire, but you are comfortable with that already.. This includes TDC setup and sinking the target as well.


Ive more question for ya, when I find target speed with the ujagd and the raobf, I'm usually doing 1-2 knots. Would that make a large enough difference that my torps would undershoot the target at a range of 3000m ish? Maybe my issue is I need to make sure I'm stopped completely.
