Yes, this was a lucky hit and no you can not always sink a carrier with one missile in game. You can run this scenario 100 times in game and you will get 100 different outcomes. I played the mission again and the CV took 3 hits and still continued to fight the damage. The Damage model is quite robust and there are plenty of different outcomes depending on hit placement. You can however get lucky like I did in this video.

Current game balance gives missiles an extremely good chance to hit because players do not have a time on target tool right now and they will usually have their missiles all coming in spaced out across minutes. If they increased defenses to what is more similar to real life most players would never get any missiles through the net since CIWS and other missiles defense are *highly* sensitive to how well you stack your missile barrage together.

Though I appreciate other channels that post Sea Power content, I've found I can't watch much as the players are often clearly clueless about how modern naval warfare works, and what's worse seem to make no attempt to learn and get better. So you just end up with a mess of a scenario that doesn't do much to show off the game. Also glad to hear the devs are working on helos dropping sonobuoys. Love the scenario but it's a rather broken if the US can't use ASW aircraft. Can't think of any situations where a carrier battle group wouldn't have plenty of ASW assets up and about.

My theories are, something simple like they forgot to turn on radars, or activate the Phalanx CIWS (happened in real life, OHP Frigate didn't have the CIWS turned on and the missile hit the ship) or it could be either its an old version of CIWS, older ones in the 80's or 90's probably look similar to the ones used today, but the ones used today have different names like Phalanx Block 2 or something, and can aim faster and react quicker, or maybe its because AEGIS does not exist yet so CIWS can't respond quickly with other weapons.

The production value and skill in your Sea Power exceed all other gameplay I've found to scratch the itch until the game goes on sale.👌 One slight comment though - mild spoiler ahead - Granit ASMs should almost always be fired as a full salvo. A Charlie is not going ot be tasked on two carrier groups in one sortie, and gameplay-wise this is just a single mission as well, so there is no reason to spare. Since they coordinate on target selection, there is no risk of overkilling the largest radar signature like with less evolved ASMs. The more you launch, the fewer in the swarm have to expose themselves to long range SAMs by playing spotter on the way to the target. The Soviet taxpayer would just have to tighten his belt for a bit, but since this scenario involves blowing up a US carrier group, Granit price would be the least of his problems.😅
@mymanager3662Ай бұрын
I agree. It was exceptionally lucky that only 8 missiles did the job here but leaves two more salvos. However if the first salvo doesn't succeed and maybe even gets entirely intercepted, you have gained little to nothing but wasted a bunch of missiles. The larger the group in one attack, the larger the percentage of missiles getting to a target With ASMs I would say 'overkill is underrated'

17:30 the hit to the forward hangar like that wouldnt have sunk the carrier that easily, not only was none of the vitals hit but also with the ship at battlestations the hangar doors would be closed off and contained to that hangar. the brunt of the damage would be absorbed by the initial hit, and a bunch of damage would occur in the forward hangar bay and any aircraft in the area, but after that the situation would be quite managable especially with USN damage control standards. I would say a large hole would be made above the waterline there, probably extending to the EL1 there and raising the armoured flight deck in that general area, making it unusable. The forward catapults will most likely be knocked out but after the fires are put out the Carrier would still be able to do partial flight ops with cats 3 and 4.

Literally look up irl examples of much bigger ordanance dropped on ships from World War 2, the Formidable and/or Illustrious survived several 1000kg bombs from German aircraft, or the much larger guided bombs that hit Warspite and so on so forth. With the modern technology of those days and how the ships were built then, the 750kg warhead would be survivable. No doubt do heavy damage but for a Super Carrier it will survive, and no those shock waves aren't going through the giant blast doors in the hangar bay or for the elevators.

@@battleship6177 In the case of Warspite Fritz X hit the funnel and overpenetrated the hull and exlpoded deep under Warspite which is likely what saved it. Look up what happened to Roma when a Fritz X detonated inside the ship not outside. I don't know about the attack on HMS Illustrious but a quick Google search says that it was hit by several 1000 POUNDS AP bombs not 1000 KG bombs. 1000 pounds equals 453kg and that's the entire mass of the bomb not the mass of the explosive charge. One more Google search later I found the German 500kg armor piercing bomb that likely was used, it's the PD 500 which has an explosive mass of only 32 kg! The P-700 has 23 times more explosive mass! Your argument is irrelevant since your examples are either overpenetration or significantly lighter warhead.

I've always wondered if and how friendly submarines operate in team in a succesful way. I mean, communication between each other is limited more than for forces above water. I used to play 688i and SC:Akula later on. Man i was a huge fan of that. Too bad i cant get the latter working on windows 10. I had a modded install that kicked a.

Ngl it would be pretty cool if a ship that carries Helos or other aircraft is going down & itll try and take off as many aircraft as possible to try and get them back to an airbase or just tryna give the pilots the best chance at survival, & with the helos they could try and go to another ship (That has the capacity for it) to put some of the sailors on that ship/ other ships & their helos will try and rescue liferafts.

Old SSGN soviet ships could only launch a handful of these missiles at a time. It took some amount of time to get the fire control to switch missile banks. I really want to get my hands on the game so I can mod it to realistic systems. The game does a good job over all but some of the details like what types of torps a German sub would carry and shot along with this Soviet fire control system, they need an update patch. Yes I know it's a game but as a game dev you never want your game to end up like World of Warships.

I don’t know where you get your info, but from all I could find every soviet SSGN could launch all of it missiles, only the older ones had less missiles in total but they could still launch all of them. Plus this is a Oscar class sub which were new so I don’t know what you mean with old and could easily launch it’s missiles, even if you look at the missiles complexity it would have sucked if they couldn’t launch all of them. Otherwise nice intent of wanting to mod some things yourself

Odd that the masts can’t be raised in rough seas. Typically you would be worried about the current pushing against the mast bending it (usually a speed limit or something), not the waves slapping against it. Sure they’re less effective but you’d still be just fine to raise it.
