Back on topic: I have good news for future Kilo skippers! I have read great article in mentioned earlier Polish periodic "Nowa Technika Wojskowa" about Kilo's successor called project 677 or "Lada"-class sub will be armed with UGSTs and up to four Club-S missiles! Additionally "Lada" will also carry self-propelled submarine imitation devices (something now completely lacks in DW!) fired from torpedo tubes and made on the basis of electric torpedoes. There are three types of them now available: "Korund" ("Corundum"), "Berilij" ("Beryllium") and "Tuniec" ("Tuna"). Brand-new sonar suite called "Arfa" ("Lyre") includes first on Russian diesel subs towed array sonar which can detect surface targets up to 200 km! Also AIP propulsion of "Krista³³-27" ("Crystal-27") type is planned for next "Ladas"! This sub costs about 250 million USD but including independent AIP module total price is 300-320 million USD. Quite cheap if compared with its Western counterparts!

Hurrah!!!

There is plenty of new work as you can see, Lufty. So, snap to it!

Damn it, you guys made me actually read those posts and sort out the wheat from the chaff... I asked you to stop, but you still waste my time.

Ok... NO MORE POLITICS.

Molon, yeah the pinging helos on landing is a bit of an annoyance... I'm not sure if there is another way I can do it so that this doesn't happen.

I'll think about it. :hmm:

Cheers,
David

Hello Lufty!

Could you make playable "Lada" sub or Kilo armed with UGST??? :hmm:

Think about it!

You know, I've given this a bit more thought and I've decided it's only minor. Don't lose any sleep over it.

[Molon Labe]

Now onto something more serious...

Is there a limit to how far out you can get the helo to prosecute a contact?
I'm trying to engage a sub at ~60nm. FFG control loses the link at about 33nm. I've tried promoting the contact manually with the helo 30mn out, but he just turns around and heads back for the boat at that point.

Any ideas, or is there a 'hardcap' on how far out you can use the helo?

The communication with the helicopter seems has dependence on height of flight of the helicopter. By default in the engine of game the helicopter travels in height of 300 ft. Concerning it distance - management of the helicopter also depends.

There, now it's on-topic!

The reduction of ranges of detection will be bad to work for the visual control on acoustics sonars for the player .

Frequency show the lines on NB, will occur at once on 2 or 3.

Or the dirty curses are purer than politics?

[GrayOwl]

We were going to to speak about serious - Who some that wanted to speak directly...

For MH-60 Helo radar is established in wrong meanings - on the screen of a radar station for the player of the helicopter, a scale of the display is limited 40 NMI, at the same time AI helicopters use full detection distance - about 256 kyloyards for this sensor control in a database. Thus AI helicopters have advantage in for detection 3 times greater than player. Or Radar Ranges in "REMRO" Mode - distance controllable MH-60 from FFG Station Control also - Cheats .

Even if the target is found out for detectable, if distance in 40 NMI will not be closed , target yet will NO appear on the screen of a radar for the player for marking. :rotfl:

Khe-Khe… For myself I already have corrected it.
Very much it would be desirable to have a "Nice Music"……

Hello again Lufty, old bungler!

Something is wrong with fuses of Russian wakehomers in your mod! Such torpedo can swim through ship's hull without detonation. Only if it hits hull's center, explosion takes place.

Any explanations, buddy? :hmm:

No, the wakehomers work fine... the way the have been working for 1.5 years.

Try again.
