I just picked up Larry Bond's new book, and while I'm sure there are tons of people here who can poke holes in the latest adventures of Capt. Jerry Mitchell, it's given me some ideas for things that would be neat in CW.

No, I'm not asking for Status-6 (or the book's Dragon torpedo), although I'm sure that would be cool for an alternate final mission. However, I would like to see CAPTOR mines (or the Russian equivalent), that would add some teeth to the existing contact mine fields that just aren't a threat to the subs in the game. I'd also like to see some form of UUVs, even if they're just the basic remote sensor type for scouting, they don't have to be the big fancy multipurpose kind like in the novels. Also, stretched Special Purpose boats like the Jimmy Carter. Maybe those boats would have the capability to carry SEAL teams without sacrificing torpedoes?
