Default Cruise Missiles.

I have the Ohio Class Sub and it has cruise missiles. I just went on a campaign with the Ohio Class Sub and launched a bunch of missiles at close range and they all went off course. What are the best circumstances for using them and should i replace them with MK-48 at close range?

My advice as far as the cruise missles go is this, don't bother with them. The inherent flaw with them is their speed and acceleration. They take a while to accelerate up to their full speed but the game doesn't account for this. So in order to effectively use them you have to gauge your shots and fire far enough out ahead of your target to get a hit. I included them in my 688i mod for the user to decide but I won't use them.
