    Combat tactics Mr. MagzTV. By turning into the torpedo the Chendgu attempted to close the distance before it could arm itself.
    Unfortunately the captain wasn't a strangely Scottish-sounding Lithuanian man fleeing the Soviet Union, so it didn't quite work out...

  • @drtidrow
    @drtidrow Před 6 lety +14

    Noisemakers really only deafen a torpedo's seeker for a short period of time, they don't attract them... the torps turn away from the noisemaker to try and get around what "blinding" them. The best way to use them is to let the torp get close, drop a noisemaker then immediately change course and depth when the torp turns away from the noisemaker.
    The MOSS decoy actually makes noises like a real sub, to fool passive sensors into thinking it's a real sub... not sure if they're very effective against active sonar.

    • @GrasshopperKelly
      @GrasshopperKelly Před 2 lety

      Some of the most modern MOSS listen for Sonar, to attempt to "return" the correct soundwaves. Otherwise yes, Cold War stuff, isn't the most effective to active Sonar. The active Sonar gets a return for a small torpedo size object, not a boat. BUT! As far as older torpedoes are concerned. It's sounds like a sub, it acts like a sub, and it's the sub it can see, so it goes for it. Nothing stopping anyone who still has the wire and knows it's a decoy, telling the torpedo to avoid it, same as in-game.

    One tries to run from a torpedo for three reasons; in the prayers that for some divine reason, it runs ouf of steam. But the things go for hours these days so as you said, not much point trying...
    Butf the torpedo hits the side, that's a very big hole in the side, and that'll either cause a list and capsize, or maybe even reduce the structure enough to simply split the boat/ship. Most modern torps ofc target themselves under the keel to break the back instead.
    A hit to the stern or even the bow might be crippling, but might just save the ship, or at least give more time for those on hoard to save themselves. There's a lot of objects to hit like the screws and rudder(s) at the back.
    Lastly, there's a very, very slim chance, the screw wash will mess with the torps. The newer the torpedo ofc the more likely it will just not care.

    I'm playing the SCS campaign now with a Flt. 3 LA Class boat. The reason I chose the LA class over the Seawolf is because the LA class boat has a significantly lower active sonar reflectivity than the Seawolf.

      @videomaniac108 Před 2 lety +1

      @@wyattpeterson6286 You might take it seriously if the enemy is using powerful active sonar and you're trying to remain undetected. The acoustic emissions of the LA class boats were pretty low, low enough that the Chinese warships were not that much of a problem, and so the lower emissions of the Seawolf were not a good trade off for its increased active sonar cross section.

    • @KevinEnjoyer
      @KevinEnjoyer Před rokem +1

      Interesting. As for me, the LA FLT3 is my choice because I use Dot Mod, which makes the boat able to dive deeper. However, it's also got a VLS. Which is such a blessing when you want both torpedos and missiles loaded, ready to roll. Makes TLAM missions and catching fleeing transports much easier.

Majority of their sub fleet are mini subs so it wouldn't be challenging.

      Eryk, You seem to not understand how Cold Waters Works.
      Yes you look at the submarine from the outside but did you notice how some of those ships and subs suddenly rendered in on the 3rd person camera? The game only renders the 3D models of Ships or Submarines that you have managed to get a perfect targeting solution on. Essentially the 3rd person camera is a physical 3D render of your own sonar.
      You can be right on top of an enemy sub but if you don't have a perfect (95%+) solution it will not render on the 3rd person view.
