Its a very satisfying shot this hydrophone only attack. I use Werners method for pinging, I ping three times to get a good average range to the target. Then I send that to the TDC. This is way out there 15000 yards. Once you get the speed and track. You still need to confirm and refine all the data. You can opt for using the Position Keeper but if you do a lot of maneuvering you are going to need a lot of updates to keep it current and viable.

I could be wrong but in my experience I prefer to set up a Dick O' Cane shot with the hydrophone on those dark and poor visibility nights.

Use the Single Mission Borneo Convoy to hone the blade. Plenty of targets, predictable, repeatable and the tin cans are not to rabid.

RR,

I watched your DOK video last night very good. Interesting about double clicking the TDC triangle. When is the new one coming out? Well done!
