Does it sometimes feel that this title is a little stuck in the Cold War?

History has a tendency to repeat itself. Many elements of the "Cold War" are actually still in play. Russia is pouring more money into their navy once again. China is certaily coming on line in that fashion too. We see a unique need to have Submarines performing more "brown water" missions. I see the need for our fleet to be able to accomodate both types of missions. The Virginia class seems to be able to do that. But in reality we have been doing that all along. For example the Seawolf (SSN) has spent a lot of time in rivers. Imagine that mission! I am not sure a Virginia class could do that. But who knows and time will tell. But i am eager to see where these Sim game go with it all. Well, gotta go, I have Typhoon that is begging to have a date with a MK-48.
