Total Optics Overhaul

[steel shark]

as most if not all submarines have 2 periscopes & other optics Binoculars ect i have been thinking of making this a thing in :

Epic Waters

Pacific Waters

Atlantic Waters

so in Epic waters this is :

Attack periscope = Slower ESM Detection speed and smaller View area But Smaller so less Radar detection chance

Observation periscope = Faster ESM Detection speed and larger view but it is easier to detect on radar


Pacific & Atlantic Waters

Attack periscope = harder to spot better zoom settings but darker view as smaller lenses so less good at night

Observation periscope = larger view area and brighter view then attack scope because of larger lenses used but easier to spot

Surface ship Optics

Basically a periscope or binoculars for surface warships

Binoculars

these are used on the surface by crew on watch

UZO or Master Surface Optic Sight

Basically a Large Binocular to use Torpedoes with on the surface



Other advantages to duel scopes are if esm you can use both scopes & the esm mast for faster Triangulation of targets via ESM

other advantage is you have 2 Periscopes so you have a spare if one gets damaged

Optic View Movement

I will add camera up and down to all optics as well

Observation periscopes will have more up and down then Attack Periscopes as they have a larger Elevation and depression The Master Sight or uzo will have limited up and down as well but Binoculars will be Unlimited Angel Wise so will basically be free look

as for Photonics Masts Like the Virginia & Astute Classes Have ill have to think on it as they 360 Degree views

im going to try and use very high resolution back ground images and photo fit the scopes together using the best images i can for a nise look ive included some of my research photos for you to look at

This is under construction by me at the moment
