As ETR3 said: Spy Satellite? There weren't a lot of them around in WWII. They were called search planes.

That launch took place on October 4, 1957 . I think the war was over and it wasn't a spy sat.

Think he meant the Spysat mod similar too the ones that SH3 have, like this one.

<sniff!> You would be OTL then. Here at the SH4 forum we engage only in the most realistic mods, preferring rigid realism to fun.

That's our motto here: NO HAVING FUN!!!!*

*Please disregard any Slightly Subnuclear Weapons we might have lying about. These are clearly evidence of a criminally deranged mind and do not reflect the completely serious nature of the Silent Hunter 4 modding community, which expressly sneers in the general direction of the Slightly Subnuclear modder.

Lil´ my friend, Im sure the RAF didnt have any photo recon Spits, and just imagine, the brass would never aprove you requesting help from Limey fly-boys

Dont know what the Army Air Forces would have flown (again, the navy brass would say NO)

and Marine Aviation... that´s a hell no!

LOL

no nothing like that was ever done for sh4

someone was trying to do a celestial navigation mod to navigate by star charts but i think they figured out it couldnt be done accurately because of the way stars are done in the game.

i could be wrong but i didnt see it talked about much after the idea first came up and the thread sank out of sight.

Never saw that before. Probably a little too detailed, even if you could get your Exec to piece together data from every radio report and plot it to his navigation chart.

I read in an old post somewhere that a spy satellite mod was impractical because of how SH4 spawns its ships, convoys, etc.
