I haven't played SC and DW enough to assess if they will fit within a dynamic campaign, I know some missions are very detailed, but you will be surprised only the first time you play a mission, after that you will know who you are playing against and prepare accordingly
Cold war era submarine warfare for sure can fit into a dynamic campaign. I still miss old "Red Storm Rising", with all its flaws and inacuracies, it was a great immersion, even RPG experience. It is a pitty that no one has created a sub sim that let you roam the seas, periodically getting updates from HQ, and tracking your sensors, not giving for granted anything.
Like: maybe that faint contact is a russian sub, maybe it is just a trawler, maybe it is French sub, you can spend hours tracking it just to discover that it is neutral, and you need to disengage without a fight.
Moreover, dynamic campaigns vs single missions are not zero-sum, you have both in Silent Hunter, and both are amazing
