Elevation .

Planes .

Also , when using the targetting scope, ( altho one can fire with it ) , one can see the information below , which is hidden by the targetting scope.

For example , the small tactical. and all that , without changing the view .

The targetting gives a little more accuracy , and is always level on the horizon .

However , maybe they could have been combined . ?

ww2 pocket subs->suicideplanes.

// in the last months of the war, subs was refited whit a SNORKEL, so they could drive?n charge under the surface//

and here i was under the impression that is was so for a long time before, type ww1 already.. strange...

but i hawe a fealing that somwat is the chase(in game).. i think u can vent in submerged(scope depth), but i hawe newer seen it charge until im surface and half ahead...
