Hunting the USS Tarawa! | Sea Power

[@whale75]

I served on the USS Peleliu, LHA-5, way back in the 90's. I love they modeled them into Sea Power. Interesting the choice to model them with the forward 5" guns, all LHA's had those removed around 1995.

[@cbrosentertainment1806]

The game takes place between 60-80’s with the cutoff date being around 85 I think

@@cbrosentertainment1806 nice, then it makes sense to have them. I wasn't sure the exact period they were shooting for.

[@cbrosentertainment1806]

@@whale75 yeah! Super cool ships one came to New Orleans maybe 10 or so years ago they had a public touring event and we got to go on some ships I don’t think they were arleigh burkes but I’m not sure which ships they were honestly but in the distance you could see the LHA and I naively thought it was a giant aircraft carrier 🤣 I think it was navy week not sure what year

[@aniowaclassbattleship7257]

I recently watched someone making a scenario in the mission editor, and showed that the earliest year date can be set as far back as 1947. Which I’m hoping will mean that the unit roster will include having assets starting from the Post-War era.

It’s hilarious that there’s an actual war crime notification lmao

Omg it killed me how you ran into his towed array.

[@madeconomist458]

Jane's Fleet Command in 2024? Hell yeah, dude!

[@ElGordodeAlemana]

I really appreciate you keeping the videos concise through editing.

[@bigpapaharambe3565]

Could you change your camera to the bottom middle or higher left so we can see the commands you are hitting? cheers man looking forward to this release!

[@TheDevildogGamer]

Hard to do on the fly during a livestream, Each game has different UI so I just gotta pick a camera spot and roll with it

[@MrBeej72]

A great book to read and get an idea of setting up torpedo shots is Tom Clancy SSN . One of my favourite submarine books to read

[@GlenCychosz]

Did you ever get to go on a amphib? I was a plankowner on USS Bonhomme Richard LHD6.

Hey! Can you make a scenerio that you use he Harrier and the attack helicopter from the tarahwa to perform CAS and strike ground targets??

[@circleofshame]

It's in German but you'll get the gist. kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4nYnoR9hLOCeLssi=eFqlHzmAiYONEgxv

[@ArsenalFC-hp7xr]

The ship direction icon confuses me. On Silent Hunter, the direction is the opposite.

[@1DjScarface]

How did they get to the Caribbean without getting spot? If everything locked on soon got shallow enough to see anything lol Active sonar with the the towed array should’ve said RIGHT HERE

[@sedatedape315]

The waters in and around the Caribbean are Ungodly deep! Add the currents moving around islands and the undersea mountains and it can be pretty noisy for ASW patrols.

[@terryrsh8927]

This video is 10x better if you pretend the Tarawa is full of hoggit mods

[@ToreDL87]

Refreshing seeing someone do stuff that the "nerds" (and I'm subbed to the lot of them so don't get me wrong) just don't really go for. Crossing the T, but with a sub, that's a new one.

[@MackiOg]

Wieso immer die gleichen Accounts die was bekommen ?

[@thegenericguy8309]

at the start you were making positioning decisions before deciding to analyze your passive sonar returns. you should reverse that process, and always analyze what your passive sonar has to say first. going so shallow so early was unnecessarily risky when you had so much data you hadn't even read from your sonar

[@MyKirill1]

Why was the sub not firing did you find out why?

[@cybersquire]

The sub was too deep to fire torpedoes

[@TheDevildogGamer]

Too Deep it que'd all the Torpedoes one of the devs was in chat and had a laugh about it lol

[@dogma39-c4j]

*WHAT THE FUCK* I felt that

[@Rangerone13]

Once you were inside their air defense you could have used the ssn16

[@forcea1454]

The SS-N-16 is designed to sink submarines, the conventional variant is not usable against surface ships.

[@batt5779]

Hey, you're not really using the right weapon for the job here. The 53-65 (53cm/~21" diameter) is great for smaller warships (like the Spruance you one-shot), and 4 out of your 6 tubes in the Victor 2 and 3 are 53cm tubes. The 65-76K is a 65cm diameter torp, has a 50% larger warhead and is made specifically for crippling and killing larger ships like the Tarawa

[@thegenericguy8309]

in particular, it is designed to give torpedo attacks standoff range vs ASROC-equipped escorts, which 53-65K could theoretically engage past to the targets, but not reliably unless it pushed dangerously close. also, 53-65K is the ASuW wake homing torpedo with a 'K' suffix (for the Kirov plant that developed it in-house as a modification of the 53-65 torpedo, while marginally worse in performance it was dramatically cheaper and more importantly much safer to handle owing to switching to an oxy-kerosene propulsion). 53-65 also had the less common variants 53-65M (an upgrade of 53-65 retaining the type's peroxide propulsion, accepted for service but far less common later on as 53-65K proved to be far safer to handle), 53-65A (53-65K modified for electronic fire inputs for use in the Alfa class's autoloader), and the export 53-65KE (which was identical to 53-65K) 65-76 was only produced as 65-76 and the improved late cold war 65-76A. it was developed as a conventional-warhead wake homing variant of the 65-73 nuclear straight running torpedo

Asuh dudes

[@Iamabot4708]

My first time seeing your face u look identical to my freind mitch. Its uncanny 🤷🏿‍♂️

[@stevemc6010]

apparently its actually pronounced "Tar-wawa"(?) I've heard this both in a documentary and from my buddy's grandad that served on the original carrier in the 1950s

[@TheDevildogGamer]

@@stevemc6010 the entire time in the Corps I only heard it pronounced the way I say it
