im a sub skipper i rarely if ever drive the perry and never had the want or desire to fly the helo or P3 as a submarine skipper (mainly akula) this is in DW only btw i know that a wake homeing torp even though is fairly effective its not my preferd methord of attack.

if i do have to attack using torpedos my first torpedo i choose is my 65-76 (65cm in game) its an active torpedo good against both surface and sub surface contacts i use it in active mode because a perry can quite easily escape a wake homer if the skipper is good (even the dumb AI can be good sometimes) but against a human skipper my first choice is always an active torp simply because the only thing thats standing in front of a direct hit is the nixie.

Missiles yeah ok there good but if the skimmer (FFG Skipper) is a good radar operator he can come find me drop a helo over me and im gone.

I like to fire at depth so if im attacking i will normaly get close take a peek dive down to about 300 maybe 350 meters and then fire then obviously barrel away.

Sub command its diffrent i use boomers (SSBN's).
