28 salvos under Jasper control is Mr.Dunmunro's ignorance demonstration. Time ago a denier his friend confirmed (http://www.kbismarck.org/forum/viewtopi ... 420#p69464) clearly that Jasper count of salvos had been ZEROED by the change of target, thus 28+5= 33 (elementary school calculation) were fired from the fore director, the remaining from the aft....
I don't comment about the pure SPECULATION of 12,8 minutes......
Your analysis is still falling down...
1) Fact: Jasper states an average salvo time of 27-28 seconds
2) Fact: Jasper states an open fire time of 0555 and ceasefire at 0609.
3) Fact: Jasper states that after 28 salvos control was shifted to the after director.
If we take 33 salvos (28+5) and multiply that times 27.5 we get 909.15 seconds or ~15 minutes....
4) Fact: Jasper states that further salvos were fired via after director control.
So we have to conclude that 28 is the total number of salvos fired prior to shifting to after director control since 28 + 5 invalidates Fact 1 and doesn't leave time for Fact 4 to occur. Jasper states after 28 salvos, not after 28 + 5 salvos. Again you just make things up and present them as facts even when they contradict clear statements by Jasper.
If you want to argue that Jasper is lying then that's fine except then you have no information at all.
There's a reason why I started a separate thread for PE's firing procedure.
