Stumbled on this Re: Battery's
The info in the two graphs linked below reflect values in the pre-WW II submarines, however the TAMBOR class is also pre-WW II and is included in this data. As you know, diesel electric boats had two, then four diesel engines, plus the aux 'Hotel' engine.
Of course the electric engines powered the prop's. HNSA sure has changed and much of their info is no longer available like the battery tables CCIP (and I) had seen before. These websites are disappearing fast (so grab what is of interest when you find it)... however I was able to find info on HyperWar that may be of interest regarding battery's: Quote:
"1125. Submarines may be expected to submerge in less than 60 seconds."!!! I don't think they could go on patrol unless they could submerge in less than 60 seconds. This is not an issue in FOTRSU but I had made that statement many times. I'll go back to re-reading Silent Victory now : ) Happy Hunting! |
Nice find aanker. I've been on that site quite a lot lately, and never saw that. There are a lot of nooks & crannies there. Of course, it helps if a person comprehends what they read :roll:
Silent Victory is very nice (I'm on my 3rd read already), but even it leaves out some details that I'd like to find... |
when can the next version be downloaded?

We are hammering on it now, trying to meld the different parts into a cohesive whole (not "hole"). We have had to drop some of what we wanted to change, due to other issues being found, but there is still a lot of "new" in this. We have to assemble it and see if it works, then release it here for further "beta" testing... As they say in programming parlance: "Soon", but that might mean a several weeks or longer, especially if things don't go smoothly... :salute:

I've noticed this mentioned before so I thought I'd mention it. I've been playing a career out of Brisbane. Came back in from a patrol to the Bismarck Sea and was offered a new command which I accepted. I was transferred to Pearl from Brisbane and took command of the USS Balao on Nov 28, 1942. One more thing I was ordered to drop off a Australian coastwatcher in the Solomons and I'm stationed at Pearl Harbor now. Weird!!! :yep: :O:

We are trying to find the source of the Balao assignment. Your report is at least the third. Two questions though cdrsubron7, what boat did you have prior to the Balao? Does it look like the Balao has appropriate gear for Dec. Of '42?
If you end up getting transferred back to Fremantle or Brisbane, a trip to Truk or the Solomons would be appropriate. Otherwise, that is a bit odd, though Guadalcanal was a 'special circumstance', as far as the 3/5 fleet versus 7th fleet boundary line was concerned, in the use of carriers & amphibious forces went... Certain folks didn't want MacCarthur having the authority to use them, being afraid he'd abandon Guadalcanal and use them elsewhere. Hence the boundary line was moved so that Guadalcanal ended up in the CenPac... :salute: |

One more question, I've noticed lately that the deck gun can only be put on behind the conning tower. I've chosen the bow deck gun numerous times 0.63 and I never get the deck gun on the bow. What gives? |

I forgot to mention the deck gun the other day as well... CapnScurvy found the issue with that, and the next update should have it to where you can have the deck gun at either mount point - it's gonna cost ya though (renown, that is)... :salute: Quote:
