@tomagabriel

Just a thought...

Based on same concept you could even include ballistic missiles for your Ohio to carry.

Ohio has few torp doors so all the others beyond torps could be ballistic.

Dynamic missile doors opening/close like torpedo doors (using same logic) and alter a torpedo so that looks like a missile to be fired vertically (if this is possible).

Cheers

Next in line is a German diesel machine (didn't decide which one exactly, but it will be one of the Type 209/206/212/214, depending on the amount of blueprints I can find for them). Personally I would choose the 209 since it seems to be a Boeing737 of the submarine world (in terms of international success).

Dive, dive!

I like the 206 because of its odd look and how sail planes operate.

But 206 would be quite a challenge (if not impossible on SH4) because the sail planes are inversed - right one is for surface and the left is for dive... So only one can be out at time... and to maintain same depth both have to be retracted (inside the hull)

link to couple pictures of the 206 at docks (but doesn't show the peculiar sail planes)

edit: the plan shown on that link is wrong the planes have that angular format but they are inversed.. cheers

Just a quick question...Will you be including the Los Angeles class attack submarine too? i.e. SSN Los Angeles/SSN Houston etc.

RobertGysae · 03-01-09, 09:14 AM

sorry to add on...but is it possible to include Australia in here somehow by modeling the ovens class submarine??

Check a bunch of pages back (around 11/12 pg)... exists a link to LA class sub if I recall properly. Cheers

688i current fix (its the full mod dont worry) on my filefront

Kaye T. Bai · 03-01-09, 11:49 PM

Say, is there a way to make the downloadble Los Angeles-class SSN fire the ADCAP torpedoes included in the Ohio-class SSBN mod?

To put it simple, I don't see why not.
I will test this possibility and post here the steps to do it (it should serve others too).

Very nice, thanks!

RobertGysae · 03-02-09, 04:13 AM

can anyone link me to a completed Akula Class? possibly with the homing torps aswel??

I wasn't aware anyone made a complete Akula-class submarine for Silent Hunter 4.

Sledgehammer427 · 03-02-09, 07:47 AM

because there isnt...yet. i have a model, but i have no time to get it working because of other mods

Stratos · 03-02-09, 01:19 PM

Possible to learn about the status of the mod without reading 25 pages? Theres something to download?

Terror_666 · 03-02-09, 06:24 PM

Hurraaaaay missiles

<stupid voice> I love you </stupid voice>
Now just wire-guided torpedo's and were set.

punkmaster98 · 03-02-09, 08:23 PM

Could somebody try this maybe?

UUM-44 SUBROC (SUBmarine ROCket)
SUBROC could be launched from a 21 inch submarine torpedo tube. After launch, the solid fuel rocket motor fires and SUBROC rises to the surface. The launch angle then changes and SUBROC flies to its destination following a predetermined ballistic trajectory. At a predetermined time in the trajectory, the reentry vehicle (containing the warhead) separates from the solid fuel motor. The warhead, a W55 5 kiloton nuclear depth bomb, drops into the water, sinking rapidly before exploding in proximity to its target. A direct hit was not necessary.
Technically, its tactical use was as an urgent-attack long-range weapon that could attack time-urgent submarine targets that could not be attacked with any other weapon without betraying the position of the launching submarine by calling for an air-strike, or where the target was too distant to be attacked quickly with a torpedo launched from the submarine. The tactical rationale for SUBROC was similar to that for ASROC or Ikara. An added advantage was that SUBROC's approach to the target was not detectable by the target in time to take evasive action, although the warhead yield would appear to make evasive maneuvers unrealistic. However, SUBROC was less flexible in its use than Ikara or ASROC: since its only payload was a nuclear warhead, it could not be used to provide stand-off fire in a conventional (e.g., non-nuclear) engagement.
