While I am very pleased with Crash Dive so far, I can't help noticing that the corvettes are nearly twice as fast as in real life. Wiki gives their maximum speed as 16kn, and points out how difficult this made it for them to catch up with a convoy if they had to stick around keeping a submarine submerged, and therefore allowing the merchants to sail on.

After I attack a convoy, they always seem to go away - and come back to protect stragglers - at 30kn.

I am sure the Admiralty would have been very happy if this had been possible

Looking forward to the next upgrade.
