Comments by "William Cox" (@WildBillCox13) on "U-Boats in the Black Sea in WW2 - Submarines on land and sea (ft. Military History Visualized)" video.
The night sea in the Caribbean lit up like millions of tiny greenish candles in our wake (at 20-28kn). I would think a canny watch could see a torpedo coming from quite some distance*, if it was running at or near the surface on a clear night. Would that give a transport enough time to evade? Probably not. But he'd see it coming. *A couple of nautical miles away. Weather conditions have a lot to do with it, too.
