I put a post a bit earlier this week in that regards.

When you have the OHP making a hard turn at 30 knots now, the ship is slowing down up to 9 knots. This is unrealistic.
In a modern frigate when we are conducting a hard turn (30 degrees rudder) and we do a complete donut, (circle) the max we will loose will be 5 knots (so 30 knots to 25 knots)
With a single shaft OHP, we should not loose more than 6-7 kts (so passing from 30 kts to no less than 23 kts.
By this than a Torpedo Counter Measure manoeuvre wold than be more possible.
