I'm simply not convineced the SH4 will have much of the holding power of SH3. This is not a rant against the US Navy or the skills of its submariners, they did score some successes and there is some history there. It's what the US Navy and its Allies did with their surface forces that actually count for something, their subs were really a side show unlike the Atlantic where the UBoat war had such devastating potential.

Have you ever play Silent Hunter 1 or the Pacific Aces mod for Silent Hunter 2. If you have you would be drooling like the rest of us patiently waiting for SH4 as taking command of a US sub totally
Although in my opinon the german uboats were the true seawolves, the american submariners had it much easier in the pacific going up against an enemy that really wasn't good at sinking subs compared to the british in the atlantic. But i can't actually recall im sure it was from the interview of a US sub commander in the Silent Hunter 1 game - he was asked did he ever come across german uboats when on patrol, he noted if we ever spotted a uboat we would try to avoid them. Dont know what this actually means but i see it as they didn't want to get in a conflict with a Uboat.:hmm:
