Default sub styles

Hello


does enybody think it would be good to make a typhoon class
sub for sh3 or sh4 even though the typhoon class is a modern day russian
sub and sh3 and sh4 is set back in world war 2 plus the typhoon.
Is nuclear powerd and is the biggest class sub in the world i think.
And it is bigger than some battel ship's.
Does enybody think it is worth it?:hmm:
To make a mamoth model for the two games.

I don't think you will find loads of people who will agree with this. Most people try to keep it as close to reality as possible. If you want projects like that you should contact Mush Martin.

A Thypoon gives fighting escorts a whole new dimension too. You can start annihalating whole convoys with intercontinental rockets :rotfl:


Sorry couldn't resist ...

I recently started an "experimental" career in a TypeXXI, the closest thing to a Typhoon-class we have in SH3.

I also found a great skin for your purposes:

No, it's not the biggest...in fact, the IX-C's are 0.1m longer.
But it's the most advanced uboat of the war, allthough it never saw combat (because the Germans were to late).

If you want to know more about this uboat-type, then go here.
Check my previous link for bugs and quirks.

Well I am not personally interested in a Typhoon, which I can already drive in Sub Command thanks to SCU, but if you can do 3D models and want to do the biggest submarine of WW2, you would make a lot of people happy doing a Narwhal class sub for Sh3/4 (Hint, hint....)

I always thought the Japanese I 400 were bigger ? :hmm:

Edit:

( 9 metres longer and a couple of thousand tons heavier)

Bloody huge monsters....probably took an hour to crash drive

If IIRC the I 400 had like a tube the watch crew dived into that would take them down to the control room as was such a long way down

Will have to find that info again

EDIT

Found it

Quote:
Another of I-400's noteworthy design features was the long vertical trunk leading down from the conning tower outside the hangar to the control room. With a diving time of 56 seconds, the bridge watch leaped into spectacular action on the command Clear the Bridge! The lookouts had to jump down the conning tower hatch, then hurtle through this long tube to man their diving stations in the control room 25 feet below (Figure 3). To cushion the landing impact a three foot thick canvas hassock was positioned in the control room at the foot of the conning tower ladder.
