You can see many old SC divers who favoured the SW now take the Ak. in DW. It is easy to see why as there
is now a greater variety of challenge available to the Ak.diver.

Getting your head into the new role is not too difficult but adapting to the downgrading in sonar performance is not.
Its like losing the SWs headlight main beam and only having a dipped beam with the Ak.
Then ,for you nocturnal rabbit shooters, your handed a riifle with a telescopic sight. You can kill long-distance but you cant see !

Generaly you are placed in the defensive reactive role - initialy I hasten to add !

But the ace the Ak diver has is the ability to send plenty to keep the SW diver very busy, possibly distracted,
allowing the Aker to gain the tactical ascendancy.

Thats another reason why I am jumping ship - if only I could get used to 'driving on dipped headlights.'

How do you Akers do it ?
