New Campaign Focused on Realism

I mean, it definitely makes sense to do that, I know I would. But at that point in time, most of the older units where being retired faster than they could be scrapped. Now days if you go onto Google Earth for example, you can see that they where actually scuttling units in mass, the majority of them being older subs. I mean, you could reactivate a scuttled sub, but faced with the economical situation at the time, I don't know if it would really be feasible. I also think the majority of the older surface units where sold for scrap to western nations. In the late 1980's, a Kanin sunk off Norway on its way to the breakers, and the majority of the Sverdlov's where actually retired in the 70-80's. Just a couple of thoughts. Sorry, I know I sound like a jerk.
