Let me start first,
I was playin the stock campaign Qingdao scenario as a Chinese Kilo platform tasked with escorting the Chinluk CVG. I know there's usually two 688i lurking nearby(I cheated once before) so i was dashin 16 knots at a time then to 4 knots to listen in order to cover the necesarry miles. Soon enough i detected a 688i in my sonar station which i manually operated then began my tracking with auto TMA. after a few minutes a solution appeared which put the 688i just about 5nm from my positon. without hesitation i fired three torpedoes(2 of them were wire guided set on active and one on passive unguided) in the mid of the attack the auto TMA repositoned the solution a couple of times at huge diferrent bearings so i guess there goes my passive torp but i still manually steered the 2 torp following the tma update and after minutes which seemed to took forever both torp hit somethin near the intended solution. I checked the demon and there was no more tpk lines so i was convinced that i've killed a 688i. So i continue the game with a proud feelin that i might get promoted for having achieved a spectacular kill. After an hour or two the Chinluk passed the assigned area which means that my job is finished. I never cheated by lookin at the status kill list but when the scenario was completed i found to my suprised that i've killed one of my own surface ship instead(Jianghu FF) and there was only a single 688i which was still lurking at some distance away never firing a single torp to attack the CVG. So instead of being promoted i guess i should be ready for a demotion:dead:. All that hours of pride vanished into thin air......guess you can never be sure when playin this game........:rotfl:
btw i don't think i misidentified the La688i it was a faint detection though....so much for auto TMA
