Just tried it out...
I made a single mission with Yamato coming in my direction at 10kts... in broad daylight (1pm) and in perfect sea conditions.
I mad notings of wich of my different systems started detecting it and at what time it occurred... so i could get the real range from simulating the mission in the editor...
This is what I came up with:
From around 18Nm unknown contact started showing up in my hydrophones... "No contact" was replyed by my sonar man...
From around 8Nm warship contac showed up in PD on my sonar...
From around 7Nm I started seeing the Yamato with the TBT...
From my periscope I spoted it from 5Nm... but I could only locked it around 4 Nm... interesting...
These were some curious findings... especially the 18Nm unknown contact with my hydrophones...
I was experimenting with a Balao class sub... I'll try with a Porpoise to see if it's the same...
P.S: Anyone knows how to add radar to a sub's loadout while creating a mission?
