Not trying to be smart, but are you using your TA?

I just played a scenario where I picked him up at 16km in the Kilo...was very easy. I had him going 5 knots at 550 feet. Narrowband got him....

I am guessing that the ease in which I picked him up will be fixed with the "patch"...

:hmm:

i am right behind one of those said tridents 8,225 meters from his screw now at 6 knots and she is diving to well i dunno till she gets there but she has passed 200 meters already

Kapitan · 08-31-05, 02:09 AM

Only way I know is forward looking HF sonar. And sometimes with 'educated guess'

Kapitan · 08-31-05, 02:57 AM

yup as i said the only way i know about the trident now is im right behind her and about 20 meters below her

Fun fun, Where can i get this mission then? I wouldnt mind giving it a go.

If she see's you will she take action?

Kapitan · 08-31-05, 03:40 AM

i dont think so and its a custom mission

It's not that hard with the stock database. In the stock database the Ohio has the same noise level as a standard 688 and has the same passive sonar capability as the Chinese Han SSN, which is rather deaf.

it is kinda hard getting right behind it
