I mean many things are suprisingly close. But the details are altered to help gameplay and hide much classified data. In the end I and I am sure any bubblehead here will say it is as close as anything else out there and details a lot more stuff more realistically than I ever thought would be possible.

I would say alarmingly close. I was shocked that the environmental modeling in this game is actually better than it is in some of my older trainers at the schoolhouse (though the new ones with AWESIM blow it out of the water). On the other hand, US Towed Array sonar is pretty silly, active intercept is a joke, and narrowband on submarines is completely out to lunch (OHP TA fixed a lot of those differences). Weapons are getting as close to reality as they ever will with the new mods, but there are some things that will hopefully always be different in the game.
This game was good enough to hook a guy who lives and breathes tactics. I absolutely LOVE my job, and this is the closest I can get to it while on shore duty. I haven't done MP yet because I simply don't have any time to commit with work lately, but I'm looking forward to it someday. I'm glad I found this forum, you seem like a good bunch of guys.
