That would be great, especially if such a sim could be played in a selectable decade... Tangs and Guppy II/III boats, with the first few nuke boats just putting out to sea... <sigh>

Yes. USS Nautilus. USS Hallibut. The Permit Class. The beloved Sturgeons.


I gotta say, this would be a nice subsim experience indeed.

I hear that!

I would love to see GUPPYs Vs. Zulus and Whiskeys playable from both sides.

It would really make for an amazing game with great moments to surface a nuke sub up and throgh a layer of ice to test launch a missile or something. Does anyone think we can expect such a game?
This is my dream as well. One can onlly dream... I don't see it happening anything soon... and when I mean soon I mean... within the next 15 years

We can dream and hope.
