Jumping emergency surface?
 
Is possible to surface this way?

I've only managed to get 40+ knots in a Los Angeles and make a big splash, but the bow doesn't fly out of the water:cry:

It would have to be modded into the game. It is fun to conduct an EB from test depth and watch the depth gage blur as you ascend.

You used to be able to get the boats to "jump" during the beta phase of the game.
I might have some old screenshots still around from then.

I doubt you would be able to make them do it now though

You can get close to that. I have.

I also managed to jump the FFG off an sand bar. She was in the air like the Dukes of Hazzard for a good seccond or two. Yeah she bent up like a pretzle, but heck. I was impressed ! :DL

Serves me right for watching the 3D view of a torpedo coming at my nixie instead of watching where I was headind at full speed on the nav map. :oops:

I'd really like to see that, as I think it's impossible. A lot of tricks can be done with winds and currents on, but that is just a poor implementation of those.
