Default SHKVAL Lwami 3.07 problem?

Hi to all
(Scusme my english grammar)
I tested launch more SHKVAL studing for a Lwami 3.07 changes.
1./ Why SHKVAL the maximun lange is 9999 mts?
2./ When my akula is on the 100 mts I shoot SHKVAL equal profundity (100 mts)
In more launched times .... at that profundity the SHKVAL ever go up +-30 mts
Wy?
I ordered 100 mts in presests for a SHKVAL

Thanks

Pd: To the team... This is a not great problem by your great work ... but why this?

These issues are in stock DW as well as LWAMI, I have just tested both.

In terms of the first issue, this is the run to enable range for the weapon, and this preset is the same as stock as well.

In terms of the depth issue, I have a suspicion that the interface is feeding the depth to the doctrine in feet without converting it, so I'll have to look at it. This is the same as stock DW.

Thanks for finding that.

Cheers,
David

While we're on the subject, how is the shkval able to propel itself to the RTE distance without using its rocket? Does the real weapon have a secondary propulsion system?

Hi
Look for the velocity
I search datas for SHKAVL


Look for the accelerates to 230
In DW is 200

Another question

In a rusian weapons forum I read this for a new SHKVAL-E warhead
Quote:
While the existence of a Shkval-E export variant fitted with a conventional warhead has been known for some time, open marketing of the system only began this year, with presentations to potential clients being made at the 2005 International Naval Defence Exhibition in St Petersburg and the MAKS 2005 exhibition at Zhukovsky. Although representatives of the Tactical Missiles Corporation (NPO Region JSC) are saying very little publicly about the system, some details have emerged.

The basic architecture being proposed consists of a surveillance radar teamed with an electro-optical surveillance system, plus different patterns of missile launcher. The Shkval rocket-torpedo can be fired from surface platforms or from underwater installations located at a depth of up to 100 m. The weapon is fired from either a torpedo tube or a special container-launcher.

A twin-round launcher can be mounted on various platforms including an anchored pontoon or a catamaran-like anchored barge, while a four-tube launcher can be installed on a special floating submersible-anchored buoy.

Shkval is able to attain speeds far above those of a conventional torpedo by exploiting supercavitation. Exhaust gases from small starter rockets are fed to and released from vents in the weapon's nose, a hardware feature shown publicly for the first time as a result of recent marketing efforts. This nose-mounted cavitator creates a partial cavity around the weapon's nose. The main rocket is then fired and its gases are used to expand the initial partial cavity at the nose to create a supercavitating bubble along the torpedo's body.

Lwami´s Team:
What do you think for these datas?
And I read the range for this warhead is 16 Kmts

See you

Proabably because in DW it is in Knots, not Miles-per-Hour.
