To and from my patrol area I rely in radio reports to find contacts. While I am in my patrol I use TC 128x or 256x(?) I try to stay submerged for 6 - 8 hrs at a time crawling along at 3 knots usually during the day and for a short time at night stopping every couple hours or so to sit and listen for a short time. I only come up to recharge my batteries, replenish my O2 and send reports then it's back down searching. It takes awhile to finish a patrol. I easily get the 24 hr requirement in! If I run out of torpedoes BEFORE I reach my patrol area I still go there to report any contacts (and practice tracking, finding, and even sometimes postioning for an attack if I think I can do it safely) until the alotted patrol time is up and then I RTB.
I still get the radio reports while I'm submerged. Which is a little strange. :hmm: That's it in a nutshell. |
