This time, four of us took part in the battle. Some of screenshots come from replay
.
Having in my mind the previous battle, I knew possible direction of enemy attack. I set a danger zone and speed up to screen our cargo ship.
Waiting for my helos, I was looking for enemy contacts with my towed array, but without any success. No track of enemy subs. Additionally there was a problem with layer. In the area it was at 300 meters, but my towed array could dive only to 210 meters.
Finally my first helo was ready. I launched him immediately and headed to the west part of the danger zone. Sonobuoys were dropped and I found one or even two potential cub contacts. Unfortunately, just after that Bleach and Janna fired they rockets at us
.
I was able to shot down missiles directed at me, but TASM aimed at cargo ship hit and sink her. In the battle, I lost control over my rockets and did not utilize fully Gaunlets to protect us.
Fortunately, my ship was safe. CIWS and chaffs did work correctly and we could perform a counter attack. First Bleach was attacked by Pepe's helo.
Two fishes did their job. It is worth to mention, that Bleach for a long time was hidden near the Oiler - good job
.
On the west side, I focused on Janna's LA. My second helo joined the counter attack. I started a hunting. I spent many torpedoes and Silexes, but finally I damaged the sub so serious, that the hull did not resist a water pressure and imploded
.
The result of the battle ? DRAW. We did not prevent a cargo ship, on the other side all LAs were sunk and they did not perform a planned land strike.
Thank you all for the game and see you next time.
