Working Air Search Radar

JALU3 · 08-14-07, 02:16 AM

Feel free to disregard this posting, however, although I have had vanilla 1.3 for a while, I have finally found time to start playing it. And OMG . . . having a working air search radar has so changed how day time patrolling goes!

Before, they'd be almost on top of you before you can start trying to submerge and/or man your AA guns . . . now they are atleast 2-3 minutes out . . . allowing even the most novice crew under crash dive orders to get to a safe depth in time.

Time to spend on the surface more often . . . allow the crew to tan, and dry their clothes near the forward hatch.

So who's gonna mod the floating skivvies and other garments forgotten in the scramble of a crash-dive, then. :rotfl:

Starting in 1941 with a T-class, SD search radar is available, for about 400 renown I think. It's not on the sub by default - you'd need renown to get it and upgrade the boat, but it is available.
