If a new patch included this, there would have to be a trade off. Perhaps not detectability from afar, but enemy fire should be able to hit it, if spotted. (Unlike a periscope, which I'd like to be able to hit too)

i would have to be a real lucky shot to say the least.

Not if it's in the middle of a convoy or something.

even in a convoy or a wolfpack hitting a piece of pipe that is only as wide as the shel you are firering would be pretty hard unless you were right on top of them. and even if you were, those old cannons were more of a point and shoot not a super accerete sniper. Image having a snokel would still be a luchery to say the least, but sadly it does not look like the game will be going anywere soon.

Even though it can't take damage in the game, I tried, and "successfully" (from the splash at the base) hit a periscope with a variety of guns. Of course it's not realistic to expect to be able to easily, but the only thing that's stopping me is the fact it's not coded as part of the target, like the conning tower is.

You do have to be perilously close, though. I wouldn't recommend it from anything but a BB. Image
