COLD War means no shooting.. you would need fiction as a starting point to make it interesting, and that bodes ill for a "simulation".. just look at SHV 1.0
Well, it would have to be a 'what if' scenario, as with many flight sims. It could work, but I'm not sure how popular it would be, especially when compared to that of U-boats.
