P3C version in DW

Hawk66 · 12-14-11, 04:18 PM

Are the stations in DW modeled according to a specific P3C version or are the stations just modeled in a functional way but not how they really look like?

This station seems to look like an upgraded P3C with more modern avionics?

Take *everything* in DW with a grain of salt.

Also: The Germans aren't likely to have the same acoustic suite as the Americans, etc, so just because they're the same airframe doesn't make the insides the same.

Another thing to keep in mind is that since DW deals with modern naval warfare, most of the information that would be pertinent to the sim is under some degree of confidentiality and was modeled with general public knowledge of capabilities to avoid security breaches. I wouldn't take modeling too seriously simply because Sonalysts could only go so far with it for the aforementioned security reasons.

The interfaces within may not reflect the equipment on the real P3C with 100% accuracy. It can't....for national security reasons. But I do believe that the principles of ASW, ASuW, Maritime interdiction, recon, and other P3C missions can be simulated with a high level of realism anyway. Based on past comments, I think we get an excellent (and pretty accurate) representation of what operating a P3 is like.

don't doubt this and it makes a lot of fun

Imho all stations on all platforms are completely made up.
