Bubbles boil up behind you as you punch flank speed, heeling hard to port. From directly above you hear the *KAWHAM KAWHAM!* of a Y-gun firing; the sharp reports slapping the water as they hurl depth charges far out abeam of your attacker to create a pattern to catch you. That makes him Nasty Irritating Prick #2 - #1 has *two* of the damned things. You look upwards, unable to see the ashcans sinking towards you, but perfectly capable of imagining them as they sink. You're at six knots now, coming up on seven, and turning far, far too slow.

*KRUMPH!*

*KRUMP!*

*KRUMPH!*

The fantail charges begin detonating behind you. Timing it from when you heard the first splash, you know you'll turn clear of them before they reach you, but the side-thrown ones, they will be right on top of you. You brace for the blast, halting your turn and praying that you've managed to thread the narrow needle between his fantail and the throw of the Y-gun-

*KWHAM!*

A pressure wave slams into your belly, lifting you a few inches and making you rock slightly. Alarm bolts through your system like a cold lightning bolt; it was *damn* close but went off a good fifty feet too deep. The layer overhead must be playing hell with their depth ranging.

You turn hard once more to present your bow to the retreating destroyer, giving his sonar the smallest possible target as you drop speed to ahead one-third – as much to husband your strength as to keep the sound down. If you run out of battery before they run out of charges, its all over. The last attack was the closest yet – if the charge had been twenty yards closer, the depth wouldn't have mattered – but you've survived, again.

And that's when you hear playmate #1's pings behind you as he finishes his turn and comes towards your location, pinging steadily and inevitably.

This is a rather different situation from the Virginia's.
With two destroyers running a constant train on Harder's ass, basically his only hope of survival is for somebody else to peel them off of him or for him to get lucky long enough for them to give up. He doesn't have the time or endurance to keep getting lucky. He does have a reputation for fucking back at fuckers.

Going deep will just bring us farther away from the layer and make it easier for them to get a depth fix on us, without solving anything.

Dat posterior.

Bunny radar set for Hornet when?

>>41876230

You aren't exempt missy. You are much wider then hornet ever could be at the waterline.

>>41876337
You wouldn't have any spare dreadnaughts lying around not doing anything would you?

So to recap, we are between two ships with our bow pointed towards the stern of one retreating, and one coming towards us.

The BLOOD AND THUNDER course of action would be to surface to periscope depth in the wake of one ship to hide from the rear ship's sonar and fire torpedoes fore and aft to take out both ships. Mk14s can be fired from a depth of up to 180 feet, but take time to rise to the surface.

A possible game changer would be acoustic seekers, we still don't know what Harder has loaded in his aft tubes. Hue

>>41875841
Planefag, I actually had a thought regarding the equipment of the girls, along with modernization, upgrades and so on... In the game and in several doujins I've seen, aren't the fairies responsible for maintainance and R&D, with a small amount of human-sized help?

Sure, in your quest with the shifts in size and so on, it makes things more complicated, but given that pilot a couple of threads back who proved the fairies are a little more than just the extensions of their mothership's will, it'd make sense for Settle and co. to look into seeing if they can help out around the base. Sure, it'd mean declassifying them somewhat, but personally, I'd be excited to see it. Just a suggestion.

2) It's unknown what effects there would be to the shipgirl whos crew leave her
3) Aside from a singular desu, the fae haven't been able to actually communicate with humans besides that one time there was an incoherent screaming match

>>41876444
That would be a decent quest for Settle. He has passed the fae SAN check a couple times though.

To be honest, half the personnel on base are crazy enough that a couple more or less points of SAN won't matter in the grand scheme of things.

Shipgirls CAN be decommissioned. What about fleet logistics and repair ships? They could be cannibalized (metaphorically) to create small-scale factories for their fairy crews. Official cannon is that if a girl is decommissioned, she can live as a perfectly ordinary human. The fairies certainly seem capable of understanding humans at least, even if they can't communicate very well.

The Virginia's have tomahawks I their VLS tubes. If Harder can get a call through, Settle can have one out up and lob a couple at the destroyers. Hell, Settle should be able to see the tin cans making their depth charge runs and figure it out for himself. The Virgina's should be well within range and one tomahawk should be more than enough.

Why do people play Football Manager?

I just learned something mildly terrifying. Near the end of the war Iowa BBs were issued with Variable Time (proximity) fuses, they were again issued new model proximity HE shells during the 1980's reactivation. For artillery purposes proximity fuses are used to airburst a round before it hits the ground, forcing the enemy to be under hard cover instead of below ground level in a trench. It's likely that the Iowas used them in fashion during the Gulf War and other conflicts.

I can't find any record of them actually doing this, but there exists a data table showing travel times and ranges for a 16" VT shell fired into the air. What I'm saying is that Iowa and her sisters could potentially use their main batteries as flak guns. The mounts are not dual-purpose and can only elevate to +45 degrees instead of the typical +85, but this would still allow them to engage aircraft up to 5km out and 4km in altitude.

This would allow the Iowas to lay down some serious FREEDOM all over any enemy planes that must approach to within a certain distance at low altitudes. Torpedo bombers for instance.

>>41877297

The propaganda films during the war always lingered on this part – the tense, fearful wait for the depth charges to sink; the blasts buffeting the little model submarine in the tank of water maneuvered by prop-handlers. The long hunt, the never-ending bombardment is what defines the submarine war in the minds of the public – then and now, as your internet roaming discovered. When the escorts crowd in above you, every evasive maneuver seems to be futile and you can't seem to shake the dogs prowling the surface above, the answer is always the same -

Run quieter.

Go deeper.

They are the brave ones – the skippers with nerves of steel, listening to the destroyers making their runs every few minutes for hours and even days on end, plodding along at a safe, silent two knots while their attackers scream in at flank to bombard and bombard and bombard. *They* are the unshakable and fearless, the men who'd dive well below their test-depth, listening to the steel hull creak and groan under ever-increasing strain, knowing every *second* that the boat might slip past her crush depth and implode, killing everyone aboard before they know what hit them. Men like these defined the Silent Service; iron wills and steel nerves. Your peers, your icons – it is by their example that you could, and should escape this lethal trap.

You stare down into the dark, cold abyss of the Pacific; the breeding ground of the abyssals, the grave of countless thousands. You're a hundred feet past your test depth already – and to survive you might have to dive a hundred more, knowing death could come at any second, and that Na- nobody would know what claimed you, or how. The sound of the second escort's screws are coming in fast as his fellow circles around at flank to line up another run – if you're going to move, you've got to do it now. But when you squeeze your trembling hands tight and try to summon the resolve to take the plunge, all you can hear is the fast, steady beat of the destroyer's pistons overhead as the motherfucker motors in as casual as can please to hammer you again.

Your skin flushes with heat as the last thin thread of patience snaps, your eyes turning upwards to the distant glow of the surface. Someone's diving into that abyss today – and it sure as hell won't be you.

It's time to send these assholes home.

The IJN incendiary shells were basically giant 18" dragon breath rounds with a time delay. The shell bursts into a cone of incendiary tubes and shrapnel from the shell body. It would certainly fuck up your day if you took one to the face, but the guns used to fire them didn't have anywhere near the tracking speed to keep up with modern aircraft. USN pilots considered them to be little more than fireworks.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvuWNnKy6t8

16" VT shells on the other hand...

Remember what planefag said about the 14" shell turning the EOD truck vainly trying to contain the blast into yet more shrapnel? Yeah. These are 626 pounds heavier than that.

To put that into perspective I've read that the navy occasionally fired a 16" HE shell into Vietnam (just one!) to knock down the jungle and create a landing zone for helicopters. A single shell is enough to knock everything flat in a 100 yard radius and defoliate everything 150 yards beyond that.

You kick into flank, spreading your hands wide, twenty-five degree incline to climb out of the depths at a noisy nine knots. You come up to one-hundred-thirty feet and level off as NIP #1 breaks the thousand-yard circle, already accelerating, pinging you madly. He's as excited as a yippy dog to find you shallow, too shallow to sidestep depth charges before they reach you. You strain your ears to find his fellow, already behind him and to one side, ready to start his own run to pin you down as his fellow circles for yet another god damned depth-charging. You pop your tube doors early, and ping NIP #1 to nail down his range perfectly – running silent can go take a flying fuck at a rolling donut. Numbers fly through your head as you plot out potential shots, speeds and angles, time and space as the escort barrels in at flank, eager to nail you before you dive again.

He needn't worry about that.

The pings come faster and faster till NIP #1 is too close above to catch you in his cone – you're already climbing at nine knots when his charges begin splashing in the water. This time you *do* see them, trailing faint bubbles as they sink right at you; one even glancing off your side... and continuing to sink past you, detonating harmlessly below at your prior depth. Your periscope is rising, reaching full extension right as you level the planes at fifty-five feet.

Even a blind man could see Arizona has a thing for Settle. That falls under willful ignorance.

TLAM's can hit an old tin can, the targetings good enough and they don't need to seek independently since we have the drones to feed them real time targeting. And the warhead is big enough to kill at proximity, doesn't need to be skin-to-skin for a soft target. Just an idea, gives Harder a backup if he can't get a shot himself.

“Heeeeeere's HARDER!” you scream into the water as the shark-shaped abyssal hoves into view, plainly visible through the sheets of water shedding from the glass. He's hardly seven-hundred yards distant and already committed to a hard port turn.

“Dodge this, motherfucker,” you hiss; shoving your palm out before you. An explosion of compressed air thunders through the water from your hand, and from the end of it emerges a Mark 14, screaming away at 46 knots. Five more follow, thunderous explosions smacking your eardrums with satisfying reports as the water rushes into reoccupy the voids; your fish screaming towards the destroyer's broadside in a tight, lethal spread. You flip on your back and whip your periscope 180 degrees to the rear, the cross-hairs lining up on NIP #2's bow. He's got you dead to rights on active and you're making more noise than a brass band using a buffalo's ballsack as a base drum – which is just the way you want it. He's taking to the side a bit, not quite done with his circle. You watch him for instant eternity, gauging his will, his aggressiveness.

“Do it, faggot,” you hiss. “C'MON, PUSSY! I'M RIGHT HERE, COME AND GET ME!”

The abyssal hears you, and turns bow-on to barrel in at flank. Eldritch red flames are streaming from his eyes in a thirty-seven knot wind, spray – or saliva – dripping from the awful, toothed maw. A cannon muzzle emerges from its gaping mouth and thunders with purple flame; you see the brief blur of a shell whistle past your periscope and slam into the water just in front of you. He's committed to the attack; intending to ram.

“Yes,” you hiss. He's at 900 yards and closing fast on your stern, leaving you only four fish to use. Standard procedure is one down the throat, one to each side, one in reserve. But you smell something cagier about this asshole, and so as he passes 800 yards you fire one fish right down the throat. He knows *exactly* where you are and sees the blast and bubbles as your fish screams into the Pacific; prompting him to put the rudder hard over starboard to dodge -

- you're already turning hard to starboard as well, swinging your feet to port to increase the angle-off-bow as much as possible. You hold the turn for two horrifyingly-long seconds before ripple-firing your last three fish off to his right. They scream into the water, swimming straight for a hundred-fifteen yards before their gyros take over, turning them hard left to angle at the destroyer who's committed to his turn. You've turned a down-the-throat shot at a narrow, quick-dodging target into a high-angle broadside attack, and now all his turn has done is buy your fish room to arm. The abyssal is turning for all he's worth, his ship leaning slightly as he slams his right screw into reverse, one of your fish is tracking right for his side, a hundred yards from a high-angle oblique impact, just the kind the Mark-14 likes.

You grin savagely. “SMILE, YOU SONOFABITCH!”

Late war in SH3 it's a viable tactic if you can't escape the destroyers. Go flank, blow ballast, and pray you can catch the fucker in a forward torpedo spread when you get visual at surface.

>that comic

Sweet mother in heaven, this comic is historically inaccurate.

For one thing, MAJOR HENRY TALMAGE ELROD, of VMF-211, flew his F4F Wildcat not off a carrier, but off a landing strip on Wake Island itself. While VMF-211 was transported to Wake via carrier, VMF-211 was stationed forstly at Yuma, then Wake Island.

Secondly, he died defending Wake Island from the Japanese. Specifically, he was shot when he was making an ammo run. The implication is that he actually shot the Japanese invaiding the islands, thus proving that every Marine, whether he be a Corpsman or a pilot, is a rifleman first and foremost. (Or Rifledog, if you are so inclined, PT-109).

Thirdly, his bombing and sinking of the IJN Kisaragi (who now lives in a pineapple under the sea) was not a last-ditch manuever, but part of a series of coordinated bombing runs on the Japanese fleet bombarding Wake Island.
