Subs and Enemy ASW FF Question

Stewy1 · 08-23-15, 05:52 AM

G'day guys,

Just a quick question - how do you, in a sub, deal with Enemy ASW surface units?

I ran a test, in a Flt I LA SSN, against a Jiangwei II frigate. He ran a barrier back and forth and I was sitting on the bottom at 0 knots, right under him (in 200 ft of water).

He ran over me a couple of times; I wasn't detected - but when he was right over me again, I came to 150 ft and 2 knots to follow him, I was detected straight away (I was using scripts to let me know).

Question is, what are your tips for dealing with ASW frigates? Do you keep your distance - even on EMCON?

How can you get past a FF "barrier" to do other sneaky stuff? Also, what's the safest range against a FF who is using active sonar?

Cheers guys,
Stew

P.S. - I'm using RA Mod
