Default Bow planes on 688(I)

Hello all. Been awhile since I was on. Love the new mod. I was wondering the near/far future will there be a mod for the 688(I) so you can retract the bow planes like on the Seawolf? Just wondering?

Unfortunately, I cannot mod this...

Sorry.

I'm glad you are enjoying LWAMI!

Cheers,
David

Real I-boats retract for one reason: they're in port (or on the surface, same thing.)

That's probably why there's no mod for it. Not many missions happen in port.

I thought they retract bow planes because of ice when surfacing, when under ice pack..

No need to. Look where they're located. They never touch the ice. That makes them "ice capable"

I have noticed in DW that seawolf has it, but does it have say, Virginia or Typhoon?
The Russians love ice a lot....

The Virginia isn't even modeled in the game, and the Typhoon is in the game, but not playable.

Since someone noted that planes are retracted in ports, I guess pretty much all subs can retract them.
