High frequency display for wire-guided torpedoes
 

Not sure if anyone remember the 2018 movie "Hunter Killer"? There is a scene where a torpedo's high frequency sensor's picture is projected on a screen and Americans use it to search for Russian sub. Just wonder if we can model that somehow in DW. I mean almost all subs in the game have high frequency display. If we can redeploy that onto torpedo and allow wire-guided torpedo to "visually" search for target, it would really take the game to a new level. Attached are some the scenes from the movie to illustrate my point.

Modeling new displays in DW doesn't really seem to be a thing. The engine is old and just not modular enough for it.


That said, the display from Hunter-Killer is a work of fiction (it doesn't exist IRL) and doesn't really have any place in what is supposed to be a realistic "study sim." ;)

The only active mod still in development is Reinforce Alert, and they tend to focus on realism not movie dramatics.

Did you see that im actively developing a mod? seems like you didn't see the post i did before.

Yes, but your mod isnt available and you said might not even be available until 2024.

Do you plan to introduce a high-frequency sonar manual search/guidance mode like the OP is requesting?

The mod is estimated to be released at this month or january, i was exagerating when i said 2024..
AND NO, doing the high frequency torpedo search is possible in my opinion but i won't do this.

How do you know it doesn't exist IRL. You served on a VA boat IRL?

You don't have a need to know.

Why doesn't he need to know tho?

Why *does* he need to know?

Oh yeah if we talk about this then i agree :D
