That's for like fat juicy oil tanker targets ... warships are different due to you can hear them 50 miles, or even greater, when they are pinging and they always run around pinging looking for return signal, but that far out is not yet within their range.

Got me so far ... the captain of SSBN's and SSGN's has orders to stay as far away as they can from anything that do them harm.

SSN's are different that captain would just put a fish down your throat than run away.

Someone should make a real modern subsim with all of the new countries getting diesel boats and include the SSBN's and the SSGN's, uh?
I'm working on 1946-1991.

1991-2016 DLC pushig it a bit far no?
