I've got two questions,
1, When will it be released?
2, Is it an upgrade/addon to GW 1.1? or will GW users have to uninstall this then reinstall GWX?
Other than that, I can't wait. It looks amazing. As for the anti hummingbird mod, it is included in NYGM latest version.
I must point out here, that in 1944, not too long after gnats were recognised as homing torpedoes, the RN introduced a gnat counter-measure called the hummingbird. It was a small drone, towed by destroyer escorts about 50m behind them. It used a water vane of some sort that emitted a loud noise, the torpedo would home in on this.
These did however, limit the range and accuracy of their ASDIC.
