i havent worked on it for two days, been busy. but i mean passive sonar, its always passive sonar with me, with pinging, you might as well surface, call a cab, and tell them where to pick you up.
when i first heard of the early war theory of the us navy, i was very intrigued , i believed it was possible, and there had to be some substance to it,
otherwise it would not have been brought up.
my mission has always been to prove the us navy was right, i just dont think they had enough time to develope the concept, i have had years of sh playing to develope it, and i think i have done that in alot of ways.

guys it does work. i made the mission , and i did get the target speed , but i did reverse engineering, i already new the course of the target, and i had measured aob from the editor with my GTA 5-2 12 COORDINATE SCALE AND PROTRACTOR,
that i still have from the u s army.
i just wanted to test the formula, it works, i have that mission, i could upload it for you if you want to try it
i believe i placed the target 9. something nm away from the sub.
it only take seconds to get target speed using this formula, once you have the bearing constant, which is alittle difficult, because of the speed telegraph of the sub.
but i did it, and i know it can be done, and the TFCM says it can be done, so who am i to doubt them.
i have not tried from max hydrophone range yet, but my theory it using this formula with the point and shoot method, because of the 80 degree offset thing, once the target is there and constantly there, speed is no problem with this formula.
this is the best thing about sh i think, always trying out new concepts, this is what i love about the game the most., the war is over for me, i made it to 8/16/45, i wont start another career, for the rest of the time, im going to emmerse myself in the TFCM,
and bring to you if i can, what i can get from it .
rock, go for it, make the diagram, ill try to get the mission out, the one from long range as soon as i can, but i will add the mission that i first tried it on, it will be on filefront in about 5 minutes, if you want to add what you observe, by all means, do it.
ill call the mission formula test
also rock, you nailed it, the lead angle is from the bow of the sub, to the bearing of the target, good job buddy!

i had some problems uploading to filefront, but its up there now, you can use any one of three files, that say formula in it, as of yet, it wont let me delete any two at the moment, and there all the same, so you can use any of them
