Few more questions

[Krauter]

Hey all,

Just a few more questions.

1: Is there an effective way of fighting without the Towed Array? I'm finding that when I shoot at a target and he returns fire down my line of bearing, I am sprinting under the layer with a hard turn to face to torpedo and that's causing me to lose my towed array.

2: (Donno if this applies to stock, I am using RA) What is the "best" or better Soviet torpedoes to use? I used to use the USET-80 thinking it was similar to the Mk48. I'm finding now that it is ****. I can't wireguide it and it never seems to acquire anything (on passive or active). For engaging surface threats I usually just use SSMs (haven't tried wake-homers yet). But for ASW I don't really know what to use. How is the UGST? I tried the TEST-71 and found that I could wireguide it. Any recommendations?

3: For under ice operations, I've tried surfacing through the ice in an 688(i) to launch VLS tubes at a shore target. However, only my conning tower is getting through the ice. The rest of the hull is still under ice causing my missiles to bounce off and sink. How can I fully surface my hull?

4: Can I change the depth my torpedo is running at when I wireguide it? Or is it only set before I launch?

Thanks!
