Any platform sophisticated enough to have a waterfall would probably be sophisticated enough to have a TA.



I don't think the engine thrust/speed vs sound level artictexture is malleable enough for a two part propulsion system. Perhaps one could manipulate the snorkel function to serve as a 'silent drive off' button (and allowing higher speeds), but that would be tricky... otherwise it would be nice, and perhaps would be useful is modeling "silent speed" in some of the other platforms (speed below which the coolant pumps are off).

Questions for the RA team:
1. Is there a maximum dept for which MAD sensors won't detect a submarine. In the gameplay currently it doesn't appear to be one.

2. I'm curious of why the RA team modeled TLAM the way they did (with on/off radar searches). All the open source info I'm seen bascially has TLAMS working with GPS/inertialnavigation/surface mapping, not active radar searching. Can the group point to the sources of info?

1. The maximal depth MAD detect within the limits of 250 meters (helo mad).
Below MAD does not find out.

2. GPS adheres missile to system to a digital coordinate grid.
Earlier, at absence of system GPG, the TLAM should come on a coast, is strict in the certain points - for attachment to a digital coordinate grid (recollect 688H/K - the coordinate point of an entrance on ground) was always given at strike order.
At presents GPS it not became necessary - missile always receives the data about exact location.

The radar sensor employment for final (precision) aiming at target.
