FULL TEXT TACTICS

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR*
<S> hello RDML Fish Sir,I have some questions about tactica for the SC simulation.
What is your favorite tactic in an dive sir ?

RDMLFish3rdCTG1/SC* (12:56 pµ) :
I think I dont have a special tactic. It very much depends on the circumstances.
Terrain, opponent, surface shipping, one versus one, or more, etcetera etcetera.

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:57 pµ) :
aye sir thanks
LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:58 pµ) :
have you any specific attack strategy that you would like to share ?

RDMLFish3rdCTG1/SC* (12:58 pµ) :
I always lean very heavily on UUV's.
RDMLFish3rdCTG1/SC* (12:59 pµ) :
Especially, for evasion

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:59 pµ) :
rgr sir my next question is :
Which tactic do you use by an evasion prozess ?

RDMLFish3rdCTG1/SC* (1:02 pµ) :
If one torps comes myway, I follow it with TA and UUV.
It will try to lead your course, I launch a decoy and turn away.
But it will not always work, because I make mistakes not that the tactic is wrong.

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:02 pµ) :
great sir
LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:02 pµ) :
How to get an easy kill on the opponend sub ?

RDMLFish3rdCTG1/SC* (1:05 pµ) :
Again it depends on the skills of your opponent.
I shoot them in a V formation, one on both side of the enemy, with a passive in the middle, and
then steer them accordingly the evasion course the enemy sub make.

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:06 pµ) :
thank you Sir this was outsanding you where an great help RDML Fish Sir.
I have 1 last thing that i would like to know

RDMLFish3rdCTG1/SC* (1:07 pµ) :
If you want I can send you a replay in which you can see how I evade.

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:08 pµ) :
that would be great sir please send me your replay when you have the time
LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:08 pµ) :
now to my last question

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:12 pµ) :
i have found this tactical info here,i post it now and you read it all and than say to me if
that is ok,or not

RDMLFish3rdCTG1/SC* (1:13 pµ) :
ok fine

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:16 pµ) :
Narrowband Sonar: Keep your eyes peeled on the Narrowband sonar during the dive,When you
encounter thin dark Lines at 60 Hz / 125 Hz / 140 Hz than this means that there are
U.S. submarines out there. When the thin dark lines are in 50 Hrz / 120 and 130 Hrz than you
have mostly fished an Russian sub. By the way keep in mind that the fishing boat will also
show an line at 50 Hrz, but you can identify them easy with the help of the Demon
Display is this correct sir ???

Or Is this following sentence correct >>>>>AT narrowband fishing boat. i think the trace is
not on 50 when you change the frequency display scale to 300 or 150 or less.

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:17 pµ) :
which sentence is correct sir ? the last ? or the first post ?

RDMLFish3rdCTG1/SC* (1:19 pµ) :
akula 50.125.320.1125.1886 seawolf 60.125.320 etcetera, but i never see more then one line.

RDMLFish3rdCTG1/SC* (1:19 pµ) :
I always chance to 300

RDMLFish3rdCTG1/SC* (1:20 pµ) :
When you see two or more lines in NB the sub is very near or cavitating

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:21 pµ) :
rgr sir this great news i thank you very much for your time to answer me

RDMLFish3rdCTG1/SC* (1:21 pµ) :
ok, np. :-)

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:22 pµ) :
I have suggested that bevor we finaly put the tactical page up that the page should be reviewd
by members like you since you are most experinced.
The tactical page must be checked so that there is no error on the page.

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:22 pµ) :
thanks again RDML sir for this outstanding interview

RDMLFish3rdCTG1/SC* (1:24 pµ) :
There are more experienced officers

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:24 pµ) :
but you are one of tham and it is an great honor for me to have you as fleet mate Sir

RDMLFish3rdCTG1/SC* (1:25 pµ) :
:-[ you make me blush.

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:29 pµ) :
thanks for your help take care and good hunt RDML Fish Sir <S>

RDMLFish3rdCTG1/SC* (1:29 pµ) :
Thank you LT, god speed. <S>

CAPT Sparks info on SC

What is your favorite tactic in an dive ?
-Use of the terrain for hunting and hiding.

what is the best way to stay alive in an dive ?
-Attack is best defence. In SC frequently change speed and course to mislead auto TMA of your opponent.

have you any specific attack strategy that you would like to share ?
-In SC donnot fire too much torps at a time, this makes easier for opponent to evade and makes hard for yr own sonar to hold clear picture. Enable yr torps on opponent frontdoor and donnot enable too early.

Which tactic do you use by an evasion prozess ?
-I try to avoid evasion by clearing datum before torps get close

How to get an easy kill on the opponend sub ?
-There are no easy kills, each game is different. If ther would be easy kills then the game is no enjoy anymore.

RADM Boats info on 688I Hunter/Killer

What is your favorite tactic in an dive ?
- Laying on the bottom,or as deep as possible and go to all stop and just use my sensors

what is the best way to stay alive in an dive ?
- never fire first unless you are totally sure of your target, other wise you just give your position away

have you any specific attack strategy that you would like to share ?
- when attacking, always use as much or more firepower as needed,if one torp will work, then two is even better, at
least one active and the rest passive, running both shallow and deep, use the active to herd or drive your quarry
to the passives, better to use too much than too little

Which tactic do you use by an evasion prozess ?
- basically just stay 90 deg realitive to the incoming and drop a decoy and then change depth,pretty standard stuff

How to get an easy kill on the opponent sub ?
-chase him toward an oil rig :)

*

RDML Paul info on 688 I Hunter / killer

What is your favorite tactic in an dive ?
-I basically try to avoid enemy fire and then present myself in front of the indefensible enemy who has nothing
to do while waiting for the reloads.

what is the best way to stay alive in an dive ?
-Personally, I find that if I kill the other guy first, I have many more chances of staying alive even if he has
4 torps on my tail.
Maybe it's psychological. That is not to say you should neglect your defensive duties...But I'm on the
aggressive side, always.

have you any specific attack strategy that you would like to share ?
-I think most people who have dove with me a few times know all too well how I dive :) All I can suggest is keep
closing the distance so that if something fails (for instance, the first weapon exchange is evaded by
both sides), you are in an advantageous position for 'round 2'.

Which tactic do you use by an evasion prozess ?
-I use pretty standard evasion methods...almost never the reverse evasion, and rarely the e-blow. I treat
passives much like actives and basically the whole of my evasion is based on CM behaviour. Study it!

How to get an easy kill on the opponent sub ?
-No standard way to do that, but basically, know who it is you are diving against and judge your tactics accordingly.

Captain Tortilla info on 688 I Hunter / killer and SC game

What is your favorite tactic in an dive ?

-It depends from my opponent, if he is good or not.
In a war dive with the other guy at 15nm, and not enough time to search the whole map, i prefere to ping and
have his exact position. I know that in the most cases they take a course 90° right or left from my bearing, so
i fire active/passive combination to the right and left.
I don/t believe that my opponent fire then four torps with the same course, probably he make a fingerfire, so
i at flank out of the area, if he is on a distance on which he can/t hear me.
But not for long time, then when his torps passed my or are passing me i put a course direct to him, and fire
again.
This is one i have used in a war dive, and i won. The other wa if i have sonar contact, then i only fire first
two torps, and try to evade his ones with cms, and then go closer and fire again.

What is the best way to stay alive in an dive ?
-The best way is to go away from the torps, but going away you will lose the control over the situation and
have it more dificult to sink the enemy sub.
I think my best way to stay alive is, to make sure that my torps are first on his boat as his torps on mine, on
this way he must start evasic manoeuvres and can/t control his torps, and i can concentrate me on drive my torps
into his sub, that is an important advantage, also to stay alive.

Have you any specific attack strategy that you would like to share ?
-Be in sonar distance to have a good TMA and drive the torps to the target, but if i/m in sonar distance then
i must think he has also a track on me, so i must try to get the torps on the shortes way to him.
Sometimes i use on my torps a "ceiling" and "floor" depth.
For example: on a active passive combination i put on the active a ceiling of 500F and on the passive a floor
of 500F. now if the enemy is deep and by evading the active used e-blow, then the passive will probably hit him.
the advantage is that the enemy waste a lot of cms thinking that the torp will hit him, but it didn/t. or i can
put on a active a floor of 200F, and if he comes up, then the torp hit him. important is to have a second torp
which can move in all depth, for the case that the guy don/t will rise up.

Which tactic do you use by an evasion prozess ?
-I try to do what i can in a hot situation. normally i go with 20kn, put the enemy torp behind me, then i
fire 2-4cms, wait a second, turn 90° and watch in the towed array where the torp goes, this works.
if the torps is coming to close then i do the same, but i press the emergancy blow valve and go to flank speed.

How to get an easy kill on the opponend sub ?
-An easy kill is only possible if the opponent don/t know where you are and hasn/t much experience about
evasive manoeuvres. if you can be stealth, fire on him, stay stealth, and don/t lose his track, then you have
good chances on a easy kill.

VADM Gutsy,info on 688 I Hunter / killer

What is your favorite tactic in an dive ?
-Hmm... my favorite tactic in a dive. I'll have to give you a generalized answer for this question as I simply do
not have a favorite tactic.
the word tactic in itself implies a sort of pattern or specifc orientation and and if anything, I try not to act
in a pattern or specific orientation.
If I were to try and sum up my 'tactics' in 1 word then it would be deception. Given 2 words I add misdirection
to that.

what is the best way to stay alive in an dive ?
-Well, going back to the answer of question #1, I would say that the best way to stay alive in a dive is to
never give the other guy a clear shot at you.
Everything you do can serve to localize you for the other guy, so considering that, assess what your actions
offer up to the bad guy.
For example, you managed to find someone and yet remain anonymous.
Right off the bat you know that when you launch your attack, the bad guy stands a good chance of hearing the
torpedo launch after which he will most certainly fire a snapshot counter-attack, especially if you remain
on the same side of the layer as he is and launch that attack.
Now, let us suppose that you actually snuck across the layer and launched your attack then successfully cleared
the area or datum.
You're back on the same side of the layer as the bad guy refining your TMA solution.
The bad guy finally detects your inbound attack and counterfires but down the wrong bearing.
Caught up in the heat of the moment and the intense desire to sink the bad guy but good, you throw two more
torpedoes into the mix, but this time, you forgot to cross the layer. Oops, the bad guy hears this 'mistake' of
yours and instantly launches another pair down this new bearing or if he had already launched 4, directs 2 to
cover this new datum. Just like that, you just gave him another chance to sink you... for free.

wich is the Best way to stay alive in a dive?
- I would say that it would be to consider all the things you could do to give the other guy a datum to
fire on, and then, figure out a way to deny those things to him until you so choose.

Have you any specific attack strategy that you would like to share ?
-My specific attack strategy would be to keep the other guy occupied and on the run once I start the attack.
It's easier to deny the other guy information on your whereabouts if you can keep him running.
At flank he can't hear/see, he can't ping, and he can't tell how many more weapons you got out there.
Sometimes I'll dog-leg the approach of an attack, sometimes I won't.
I will always stagger torpedo speeds though.
One torpedo will always be 5 knots slower then the other.
I do this to prevent them from being destroyed by the same set of countermeasures.
He may evade one but then the other(s) are right behind it closing. Watch your reloads! Once the wire is cut
on a weapon, take those few seconds to reload it. When you reattack, don't forget the answer to question #2.

Which tactic do you use by an evasion prozess ?
-My first and primary evasion tactic is simple. Avoid being shot at... directly. If I receive counterfire, I take
time to determine inbound course.
If i'm threatened then it's basic... clear datum.
In my experience, with the way our scenarios are layed out today, most attacks are 'guesses' or in
other words, counterfire on a the TIW report your opponent got from his sonar crew.
These are relatively easy to avoid.
Another thing I do is to put myself on the side of the layer opposite of the torpedo.
This lessens the ability of the torpedo to see me.
Clear datum, clear datum, clear datum.
ADM Homer made the word datum into a nifty acronym which sums it up into a nutshell. DATUM or Dude, About
Time U Moved.
If all the above fails and the torpedo acquires you I have only the following advice... learn to use your
countermeasures and watch your speed when deploying them.

How to get an easy kill on the opponend sub ?
-LOL! I don't think there are any easy kills. Besides, I don't do the sinking, my torpedoes do.
If the torpedoes could speak, I think they'd say, "Just put me in the right place and
let me do my job... and oh, while your at it, get the hell out of Dodge!"
On the other hand, one could define an 'easy kill' as a kill gained without one having to evade any inbound, or
sinking the lot without expending a single countermeasure.
If I were to define it as such, then I would say, review the above to learn how to get an 'easy kill'.

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:51 pµ) :
<S> RDML Sir have you a bit spare time for an lonly anchor reporter ?

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:51 pµ) :
I have some question for you when you have the time sir ?

~RDML Donw JrAdm* (12:52 pµ) :
well time I have...but story to tell...not much bouncing around in the ole skull cap to be of much help Im afraid

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:52 pµ) :
its just simple question sir dont worry sir

~RDML Donw JrAdm* (12:52 pµ) :
LOL...ok..i'll give it a shot

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:53 pµ) :
Thank you sir

You dive mostly 688 or Sc sir ?
LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:54 pµ) :
I mean do you dive the 688I simulation or Sub command ?

~RDML Donw JrAdm* (12:54 pµ) :
I have both but only use 688

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:54 pµ) :
aye sir thank you

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:54 pµ) :
Captain Clearride and I thinking of having a tactic page link off the anchor newsletters in the future.
For this reason I would like your input on some questions from your side Sir.
What is your favorite tactic in an dive ?

~RDML Donw JrAdm* (12:55 pµ) :
for starters...staying alive by any means possible....but....
~RDML Donw JrAdm* (12:55 pµ) :
if I were to pick my favorite tactic....
~RDML Donw JrAdm* (12:58 pµ) :
maybe not my BEST favorite...I do not think I would want that disclosed...
but...a 4 fish finger fire...seperating the fish from between 3 to 4 miles ..followed by an active ping when the fish are in the general vacinity of my prey...is sometimes quite effictive...

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:59 pµ) :
aye sir that was great my next question sir:
have you any specific attack strategy that you would like to share ?

~RDML Donw JrAdm* (12:59 pµ) :
but of course..that all depends on the tactical situation...
with several players involved...that has many drawbacks...not worth the expense

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:00 pµ) :
Which tactic do you use by an evasion prozess ?

~RDML Donw JrAdm* (1:00 pµ) :
well..with a good layer present...trying to stay on the opposite side is always helpful...

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:01 pµ) :
How to get an easy kill on the opponend sub ?

~RDML Donw JrAdm* (1:01 pµ) :
the Hammer and anvil is one of my favorites

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:02 pµ) :
well that was it for today I thank you for your very good answers
and will tham forward tham

~RDML Donw JrAdm* (1:03 pµ) :
*waves* to camera...HI MOM!

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:03 pµ) :
:-)

~RDML Donw JrAdm* (1:03 pµ) :
anytime mate

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:03 pµ) :
Thanks a lot RDML sir,see you topside <S>

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (11:59 µµ) :
<S> RDML Labo Sir

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (11:59 µµ) :
<S> yes sir

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:01 pµ) :
i would have 5 question for an planned tactical page of the anchore,have you time sir ?

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:01 pµ) :
go ahead assisting here on a ftp too lol

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:01 pµ) :
thank you sir it will not take long

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:02 pµ) :
go ahead

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:02 pµ) :
What is your favorite tactic in an dive ?

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:02 pµ) :
backwards evasion sir

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:02 pµ) :
you can see torps incoming at you

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:02 pµ) :
very good sir so you dont worry about your Ta than ?

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:03 pµ) :
not really you still have another ta and the spherical array to detect them

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:03 pµ) :
if its on close quarters that will be done at once

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:03 pµ) :
aye sir my next question is:
what is the best way to stay alive in an dive ?

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:04 pµ) :
to go at slow speed near the tjermal layer scouting both layers and wait for the other to show up

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:05 pµ) :
very good sir,ave you any specific attack strategy that you would like to share ?

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:06 pµ) :
when you detect the sub if you have 4 torps there is a good combination a finger fire putting two actives in the flank ,the actives will make the sub moves iwhen your passives will be there

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:07 pµ) :
just move the actives to force the sub to move when your passives run near the contact

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:08 pµ) :
switcing on the actives on flanks at same time or switiching on and off multiple times

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:08 pµ) :
aye aye sir thank you,

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:08 pµ) :
he will move to be out of the active cones and the passive will notice that move

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:09 pµ) :
excellent sir

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:09 pµ) :
besides your backwards evasion Which tactic do you use by an evasion prozess ?

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:10 pµ) :
you have incoming torpedos at your location,change layers and run at 40 knots on 90? ofthe torps incoming for 4 minutes then stop and listen,that if you detect them on about 8 or 10 miles away

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:11 pµ) :
if not go shallow and try to see the torpedos incoming on your radar when they get on the shallows you will see it

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:12 pµ) :
very good tip indeed sir

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:12 pµ) :
last question

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:12 pµ) :
How to get an easy kill on the opponent sub ?

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:12 pµ) :
but at this time you can be detected

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:12 pµ) :
by the esm

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:12 pµ) :
rgr Sir

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:13 pµ) :
How to get an easy kill on the opponent sub ?

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:15 pµ) :
knife fights?

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:16 pµ) :
in every fight Sir knife fights and normal dives Sir,what is your opinion on get an easy kill on the opponent sub ?

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:17 pµ) :
cover the knife fight first if you like sir

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:20 pµ) :
to be near him,shoot a passive deep shallow active combo,at 55 and 50 knots,then the passive will be near the sub and the active away, then you switch on active and it will sounds as it is away and the guy will move out of the zome while the passive is going after him

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:21 pµ) :
a very good suggestion Sir thank you now how it is in normal dives ?

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:21 pµ) :
sorry i meant how it is in an normal dive ?

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:22 pµ) :
normal dives scouting both layers at slow speed 3 knots if the layes is at 300 stay at 297 with one ta at 2600 m and the other at 700 so you have both layers coivered with the arrays

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:23 pµ) :
then slowly scout for the guy

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:23 pµ) :
if you hear a torp shoot ,send a finger fire with 2 passives and 2 actives and go away from the zone while you approach to the contact to determine his location

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:25 pµ) :
very good sir Iam impressed the anchor thanks you for your coop and that you taked the time,thanks a lot sir it was an great interview

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:25 pµ) :
ok sir when that wil be posted?

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:26 pµ) :
send me a link when it shows up

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:27 pµ) :
well I will forward this interview to my chief mr Captain clearride and RDML Shipdown thay will than together with the CoC decide what and when which things will be postes when i have news i will let you know sir ,but again this depends not on me but at to my superior Officers.
i personaly thank you a lot sir it was great <S>

RDML Labo DTS/JAG (12:28 pµ) :
ok sir thanks <S>

*

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:32 pµ) :
<S> RDML Money Sir,I have an question if i may Sir ?

~RDML Money COSDCNO (12:36 pµ) :
<S> Shoot

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:37 pµ) :
thank you sir the anchor is planing to create an tactical corner and for this we would like your input on 5 questions when you have time sir

~RDML Money COSDCNO (12:37 pµ) :
ok

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:37 pµ) :
thank you sir,my first question is ;What is your favorite tactic in an dive ?

~RDML Money COSDCNO (12:38 pµ) :
hmmmm....

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:38 pµ) :
take your time i can wait sir

~RDML Money COSDCNO (12:41 pµ) :
i don't thinkk i really have a favorite tactic. each dive is different and requires me to try and adjust my tactics to those conditions. Such as is this a 1 on 1 or multipe FFA, a good hunt or a knife fight, is my opponent a new diver or an old salt who may see some of my 'tricks'
~RDML Money COSDCNO (12:43 pµ) :
there are just so many variables in a dive that its hard to carry over the same tactics from one dive to another. But in the end after thinking about it, I guess the dogleg torp is the thing I favor over anything else.

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:44 pµ) :
I understand sir,thank you my next question would be:what is the best way to stay alive in an dive ?

~RDML Money COSDCNO (12:44 pµ) :
not get hit by a torp. :-) but seriously...
~RDML Money COSDCNO (12:46 pµ) :
try to stay out of your opponents sensors. If you can use the sound environment and read the sonar screen properly, you can stay just on the edge of his sound envelope and try to work up a good solution while he doesn't see you
of course usually if you see him he can see you

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:47 pµ) :
very good sir,have you any specific attack strategy that you would like to share ?
LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:53 pµ) :
:-)

~RDML Money COSDCNO (12:54 pµ) :
there are several from the blue book that everyone knows about and uses, sometimes even adjusting to their own tastes. Like I said a minute ago the dogleg seems to be the most popular because it helps hide your bearing and I think 90% of the divers out there employ it most of the time.
One thing I like to do is send 2 torps on either side of a bearing, about 10 degrees apart. That will cover him running at 10 kts or 20 kts perpendicular to the bearing and if he speeds up or dumps CM I can steer the 2 on the other side of the bearing into him. Of course I usually only use that on TIW's :-)

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:55 pµ) :
aye sir that was very informative indeed,next would be
Which tactic do you use by an evasion prozess ?

~RDML Money COSDCNO (12:58 pµ) :
I try to keep an eye on the torp in HFS and mainly just try to get out of the way. I've had torps pass within 500yds doing that, but more often than not it seems that I get hit during silent evasion. If I see it lock onto me, I mainly just hit flank and dump CMs while turning every now and then until it either hits me or my CM. Like the blue book evasion.

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:59 pµ) :
excellent sir

~RDML Money COSDCNO (12:59 pµ) :
and staying across the layer, HFS is great for figureing out which side of the layer a torp is on

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:59 pµ) :
very good sir
LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (12:59 pµ) :
now my last question for you
LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:00 pµ) :
How to get an easy kill on the opponent sub ?
in an knife fight and in an normal dive,cover the knife fight first please sir

~RDML Money COSDCNO (1:02 pµ) :
Something for a knife fight, fire 3 slow torps, 40 kts, and just follow right behind them, the other guy seems 4 big green blobs and thinks 4 torps, while you can just steer your torps into him from HFS :-)

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:03 pµ) :
very good sir
how about in normal dives ?

~RDML Money COSDCNO (1:04 pµ) :
I don't think there is an easy kill in a normal dive because you have to find him there. Unless he is just running along at flank not paying attention trying to close distance to you (I'm guilty of that, lol).

LT Apollo 3rdFOO/TR* (1:06 pµ) :

<S> howdy LT Apollo , at first sorry the delay to answer the email, happened
because i'm getting hard weeks in my job. ok hope that help you:::::: What is your favorite tactic in an dive ? Well my favorite tactic in an dive is try make anything that the enemy can't
imagine, is try make surprises, so i can easily control the situation.
Since i play 688i and SC i can say SC is much more fun to aply tactics than
688i because you can use akula missiles to trace a tactic like block the
enemy way and use 65cm to hunt him. There are lot of tactics i really don't
know which one i can call favorite :). what is the best way to stay alive in an dive ? the best way to stay alive in the dive is never control the tactical control
over your opponent. you must always take ahead on what he is thinking and
trying make. have you any specific attack strategy that you would like to share ? i like to fire a combo where the passive is behind the active (some yards)
so when the enemy think he evaded the active,,, and evade in almost all
cases,,, he didn't saw the passive behind the active and that make me happy
:) Which tactic do you use by an evasion prozess ? well the evasive don't have much secrets. isn't my best evasive maneuvers
but i like evade going towards to the torpedo if full turn in the right time
and cms dropped. In 688i my favorite evasive is going back :) is good
because you keep all the time the torpedo in HF so you can know if he is
going to cms or not. How to get an easy kill on the opponend sub ? isn't easy get a kill but the best way in get a very good TMA that allow you
know where the enemy is and his course so you can steer the torpedoes to
him.
thx for the interview sir,,,, LCDR foca 16th XO*

<S> Greetings ADM Wallbanger Sir,
Sir,Captain Clearride and I thinking of having a tactic page link off the anchor newsletters in the future.

For this reason I would like your input on some questions from your side Sir.

What is your favorite tactic in an dive ?

When I can figure out where the opponent might be, I like to send a dog leg slow combo of 2 torps and come in from the opposite side. When the opponent gets TIW, he will figure you out in an opposite direction, maybe shoot back in that direction and will probably evade your way :)

what is the best way to stay alive in an dive ?

Situation awareness... know where those traces on you sonar are going and act accordingly... let your opponent give up his position before you do...

have you any specific attack strategy that you would like to share ?

Already did with that dog leg attack :)... you can even use a double dog leg and at one point, your opponent will get TIW from 2 different directions. 90 degrees from eachother.

Which tactic do you use by an evasion prozess ?

That can be very different depending on the bottom, the sea state, thermocline, etc... The main thing is to try to get out of the cone asap without using CMs, hence the situation awareness I was talking about earlier. Know where those torps are going before deciding wich way to turn. Using the botto slop if there is one is also a very good way to ground your opponents's torps. Again, many factors need to be analized.

How to get an easy kill on the opponend sub ?

I do not believe there is a recipie for that :). I think that there is no such thing as an easy kill... You die if you make an error, or you lack knowledge, training and/or practice. And even sometimes, when you do every thing right, you might die anyway. It might seem an easy kill if your opponent shoots and stays on station and waits for your return fire... but then, he made a crucial error. That is why you get a kill in such case.
thanks for your coop Sir.

sincerly
