The Brits have TLAM, have done for a while. They also have sub-harpoon.

They also have the mighty Spearfish torpedo which will travel 30nmi at 80 knots...

Some British ships would be nice, as would the full range of British subs- start at the Valiant class (6 tubes as well), right through, Chuchill class, Swiftsure, Trafalgar and Astute classes.

It would be nice to be in the campaign and bump into friendly ships from time to time.

The European diesel-electric boats would just be a nightmare in coastal waters.

The Brits did not get TLAM till the late 90s so that would not work in the current campaign. I also don't see how diesel-electric will work in the campaign structure as their use would be severely limited away from coastal water. Maybe they are more suited for single missions.

Give us the option of a 1990s or even 2000s campaign.

If it's 1984 or lump it we will be missing out on a lot of newer platforms...

For the US Navy, I'd like to see the Ohio class SSGNs. It'll be nice to have British, German, French, Swedish and Italian submarines as well. For expansions, a Pacific campaign would be awesome since the Chinese PLA Navy can be added along navies such as Australia, Taiwan, India, Pakistan and the two Koreas. Finally, future additions for Soviet submarines can include the Whale, Zulu, Golf, Quebec, Papa, Mike Oscar II and Akula classes among others.

Somehow, I see KillerFish having $$$-signs in their future...and good for them if they so desire it.

I hope that the base program and the Mods remain easy to mesh.

I think they've earned it. I would like to see a version of Cold Waters that replaces Sub Command; basically the same game as CW but in 2015 with the newest subs, and include a Sonalysts/Fast Attack style TMA, sonar and fire control stations that are optional.
