Approaches

For me the approach is the easy part. I usually do a good sensor sweep and then set a moderate SOA (8-12 knots in the LA/SW, 7knots in the Ak) to a preferred attack location, faster if the target is farther off. Keep a tube flooded and on snapshot for that pesky SSK that may be sitting in your path (you will probably detect each other at the same time).

The hard decisions are *after* the first attack salvo... do you run and not look back, or sprint quickly and then slow to linger and mop up any missed shots and damaged vessels? I usually opt for the latter, unless I detect a ASW helo bearing on my datum, then I head for the hills because once those guys are on your tail its slim chance to shake them.
