Thank you Scott , Leif

Was thinking my post was forgotten about.

An average of 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 minutes seems reasonable, sea condidtions would allow for varibles times.

My Original thoughts were how quickly a UBoat Captain could fire his torps and get down to a safe depth.

They would have been a very long 2-3 mins :)

I see you both worked out maths on a dive angle of 10-15 degrees.

What was the max Dive angle a Uboat could obtain And still survive?
