Needless to say depending at what range we are fighting at, a competent captain should have no problem getting into a range where he can launch an ssm and wake homing torpedo barrage at you. then while your sprinting away, im already going to flank speed and changing my position before your seahawks get there or you slow back down to usable sonar speed.  |
You probably play only against AI or very poor FFG player. OHP at 6-9 kts and EMCON are also very quiet. Towed array SQR-19 is very sensitive till 18 kts and FFG-7 aren't blind at flank speed (sonobuoys) like all submarines.
