What MOD is this?

Turning to bearing . . .


Super cavitation bubble is forming full speed ahead at more than 200 knots!



It turned out that the solution was very accurate(no surprise as it came from 3 different sonar systems)


The Shvkal might not puncture the Oberon steel hull but the magnetic detonation did the job just fine.


Secondary explosion seconds after the first blast. There was no chance for the Oberon to evade much less to survive a hit like this.



The hunter, Victor III SSN.




Now this begs the question what would happen if the Shvkal happened to be cruising far too deep or far too shallow rendering the magnetic detonator to miss the target magnetic signature?!

How would depth in RL be included into consideration? There's rumors that the bow sonar is able to find direction thus depth estimation but I'd like to see this implemented in Sonalysts next game or DW successor.
