Sea Power - Naval Combat In The Missile Age

[@The_MightyJingles]

As a number of you have pointed out, the helos in the second scenario DO have sonobouys I could have deployed. I guess that one counts as the Jingles Landing for this video.

[@billclarke5916]

And they have a MAD, that deploys at 20 feet.

[@JJJJJJJJJAAAAAA]

And the gearing has a heli hangar

[@rawnukles]

All the KZbinrs are a little overwhelmed by the detail and complexity.

[@blaymeister]

Wouldn't be a jingles video if you hadn't got something wrong Big J. Call it a free "challenge" 😉

[@paulvamos7319]

Thank you for showing us this awesome looking game! Kinda reminds me of DCS! 😊

[@deafidue5535]

I’ve been watching for the past 15 years and I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more perfect Jingles game than Sea Power.

[@darren_anscombe]

Exactly this. I could watch hours of Jingles messing up in this game.

[@karl6513]

For ASW work: the SH-2F's do have MAD's for your usage when you drop down to 20 ft. The SSQ-53's you clicked on are the sonar buoys, 15 deployable (non recoverable).

[@jbeckley6849]

Jingles. Recreate your near missile experience from the Gulf War.

[@knowledgeismyusername2879]

Omg yes! I second this.

[@andmos1001]

Third here

[@andrewmontgomery5621]

Fourth

[@anionleader]

Church of the Fifth-ing this lmao

[@paulvamos7319]

I sense the sixth! 😂

[@nitroman101_8]

Oh jingles. Those sea sprites have both sonar buoys and dipping sonar! :D

[@zockersau2]

They don't have dipping sonar in this, but they have the MAD

[@YouHaventSeenMeRight]

The load out does show SSQ-53 sonar buoys, so they have at least a number of those

[@Yukipisu]

​@zockersau2 they do have dipping sonar ,you just have to set the altitude to the lowest possible height and once they hover around they dip the sonar into the water

[@PTSF_Jaeger]

@@Yukipisu That's the Magnetic Anomaly Detector. The SH-2F in USN service was not equipped with a dipping sonar

[@nazamroth8427]

""I signed the checks, I didn't command taskforces" Can you imagine? Jingles, commanding taskforces? He would call in a strike against his own escorts in about 5 minutes.

[@paulvamos7319]

Or, his own escort would call in a strike against him for being so crap! 😂

[@prollins6443]

ENEMY BATTLESHIPS! Sir, those are our escort destoryers!

[@TBone-bz9mp]

In a twist of stupidity, the targeting system confuses escorts with Escort, and duly nukes a nearby car carrier. No ones is hurt but Mickey from Sunderland’s new Merc is fucked.

[@geromerebollido9375]

*Gearing has no helicopters, it has no hangar!* also jingles: *zooms in on the gearings obvious hangar*

[@earllamerica9348]

ASW drone helis to be exact

[@Edawgpilot]

That wasn’t the gearing

[@TonySpike]

​​​@@Edawgpilot yes it was, he is talking about the one with the single door at the back and the tiny flight deck with the line across the center Jingles even mentions it has a flight deck when he says it has no Helicopters (and he isnt wrong)

[@TonySpike]

The Gearing DOSNT have helicopters or a hanger though, it has ASW drones and a small storage area I dont think they are modled in game, so it might as well be useless in this situation

[@geromerebollido9375]

@@TonySpike if it was modelled, could they have contributed to finding the charlies? with the level of detail the devs put in, I auto assumed that it was possible to deploy and jingles just jingled

[@BWIENS789]

Fun Fact: The Kidd class was originally built for Iran before the revolution in 1979. Because they were designed to operate primarily in the hot climate of the Middle East the US Navy used them extensively in that region of the world.

[@ARescueToaster]

Great to see you covering this. I've been eagerly awaiting Sea Power and with some of the recent videos it seems to be just what I wanted -- a successor to Fleet Command! Only took a good 25 years... Anyway, now to watch the video!

[@TheJayjam]

I hope this turns into a series like cold waters back in the day!

[@apizzanaut4923]

It's great that Jingles takes great pains to point out that his surface force isn't ASW, when every ship's description points out it's ASW potency. Never change, Jingles

[@The_MightyJingles]

Because with the exception of the OHP it's not. You can stick a passive sonar on a squirrel which will allow it to do ASW work but don't try kidding yourself that it's not still optimised for nut collection and storage.

[@TonySpike]

Technically EVERY ship has ASW capabilitys my dude, dosnt mean they are DEDICATED to it

[@draconiusxvii7983]

​@@The_MightyJingles considering how many trees are born from Squirrels forgetting where they hid their nuts I don't think they're really optimised for that either

[@Darknamja]

I participated in a couple of REFORGER exercise deployments when I was a much younger man. 😉

[@AdurianJ]

The USS Kid fighting the Iranians is Ironic as the class was ordered by Iran before the revolution and then cancelled by the new government. It's a Spruance class hull built as an air defence destroyer and optimized for operations in hot climates. Hence the class spent a lot of time in the Persian gulf, today the ships are sold to Taiwan.

[@michielvanhemert9943]

mega-cool ! "Jane's FleetCommand (deluxe, remastered, revamped, the way it supposed to be back then)" returns....

[@ImezRuez]

About 2-3AM one morning in the Med I spotted a carrier group BY EYE almost an hour before it was picked up on radar. Weird atmospheric stuff like a mirage but over the water so it bent the light over the horizon while the radar didn't bend. The Captain himself handed me a cup of coffee for that catch when he came out to look.

[@thebats5270]

Jingles in this video: "I know that some of you have hesitations about early access games...." Jingles in Mingles with Jingles on Monday just gone: "Tell me a time when an early release has ever gone well." I know early access and early release are different but Jingles being Jingles is fantastic!

[@JohnWilliamNowak]

>"Tell me a time when an early release has ever gone well." Kerbal Space Program 1.0.

[@XMysticHerox]

"Tell me a time when an early release has ever gone well." Rimworld, Space Engineers, Prison Architect, Subnautica just to name a few. You certainly have to be careful with EA but there have been plenty of successful games.

[@AndreHerrmann1202]

so looking forward to this! Remembers me of the good old days with Silent Service, Red Storm Rising...

[@kidbest100]

I've DONE my waiting! 12 years of it!

[@M4m1de]

We would gladly watch more of this !

[@MaxB.20]

about the ASW mission, use the sonobuyo on your helos, you didnt used any ! would have saved you and detected a lot sooner, also the helos have the MAD, which comes out at 20ft while moving automatically, set up a track like pattern above any anomaly and you're good. dipping sonar wont be available, as it was post 80's and the game timeline stop right there.

[@TonySpike]

Dipping sonar IS avaliable in game though, the Soviet Union uses it

[@ramal5708]

He focused most of the time with the dipping sonar which the Seasprite doesn't have, they only have sonobuoys and MAD, very different from most Asw European helicopters. Sonobuoys and MAD made the helicopter more efficient in ASW since they can hunt while moving.

[@ramal5708]

Dad served on a Spruance class DD when I showed him the game, he said he's going to get the game and really want to wreck Russian ships in the game.

[@tomok7775]

#12 - scrolling through YT, lo & behold a bonus clip. Most excellent!

[@Armetheon]

Definitely want to see you playing some more of this game and telling us of your naval experiences

[@jempee731]

When I first heard about this game, i immediately was thinking of the mighty jingles. And here we are not a week later. I hope you do a series after release.🚢

[@darkflame8]

Jingles in a Submarine hunting a Russian sub: Right so when's the brown alert going to kick in?

[@boheeka77]

Thanks for this. I couldn't make it past 4 minutes of the Montana not shooting in your GOT video, so this was a nice surprise.

[@aceca5147]

Jane's fleet command 2.0 it looks like. I'm glad you're covering this!

[@turtleplop4901]

This has suprise mini Christmas series written all over it, looking forward to it hopefully

[@Aussie_venom1]

JINGLES, HOLY MOLY MATE I HAVENT SEEN YOU SINCE WORLD OF TANKS 10 YEARS AGO, GOOD SIR I HAVE MISSED YOU

[@gravey_official]

Been playing UBOAT a bunch, and I've gotten an itch for modern-era ship warfare after all the WW2 stuff. This is perfect

[@alebiosuabdulkabir6591]

I have been waiting for you to post this video since

[@jeffallen3382]

Thank you for your service Jingles!

[@BDeVizio]

Great video Jingles, I think this needs to become a regular staple of the channel!

[@ImpendingJoker]

I hope you have sense learned that the S-2Fs do in fact have Sono-buoys, and MAD. Also, the Gearing does have a helicopter.

[@TonySpike]

No it dosnt The Gearing has an ASW drone, and i dont think its modled in game

[@TheFreaker86]

Please keep the Sea Power videos coming my mighty overlord

[@Jeffschmidt1984]

Sunday suprise video...best kind of video!

[@firefox3249]

Not sure if you genuinely enjoy playing games like these, but if you do, you definitely need to play more of them and show us! It's one of those things where it's more entertaining to watch than to play. Problem is, other KZbinrs don't deliver as well in my opinion. Great showcase!

[@marmite8959]

So this is the ultimate polished modded Cold Waters experience, as a standalone game

[@Ulvdk]

I could imagine A little Young Jingles running around onboard a Type 22 when they get implemented in the game. 😂

[@yetanother9127]

33:40 Intellectually I know what you meant, but part of me is tickled by the mental image of one incredible specimen of an Iranian sailor toting around a two-ton, ten-meter-long SA-2 Guideline high-altitude surface-to-air missile on his shoulder :P

[@fablearchitect7645]

Cold waters looks like it has a better UI for the subs.

[@XMysticHerox]

I mean yeah that was purpose made for subs while this is completely general purpose. Same UI for subs, surface combatants, aircraft carriers and aircraft. Same dev btw.

[@fablearchitect7645]

@@XMysticHerox they could of just copied the UI from cold waters for the submarines

[@sealioso]

​@@fablearchitect7645it would've been inconsistent and confusing

[@XMysticHerox]

@@fablearchitect7645 Sure but having multiple UIs in a game where you constantly switch between units would not be ideal. This is not like cold waters where you only control one unit. In the vast majority of scenarios you'll have multiple vessels. Also *could have btw

[@earllamerica9348]

10:27 the thing is, the FRAM Gearings were rebuilt with emphasis on ASW, evident with gear like the ASROC box launcher amidships, two triple torpedo launchers in front of the superstructure where turret 2 originally was and a hangar which only can accomodate a QH-50 ASW drone

[@davidwhitfield6025]

The sub AI has improved in the last month which is good to see. Playing as a Russian it seemed way too easy to defeat US subs but your encounter with the Russian subs shows that that seems to be fixed. In the Strait of Hormuz scenario there were FAs as well which attacked before the attack boats came into range. Poor Helicopters didn't have much fun against them. They must have taken them out as being too hard (especially as three attacked from Oman!). Looking forward to seeing both you and Jive Turkey giving it your professional best in November.

[@markfrank3307]

Good morning Gnome Overlord. All the best. Bonus Video!

[@IPM71]

Oh, a jingles' surprise Sunday video !

[@BlackAceNicker]

Thoroughly enjoyed this video and game jingles. Hope u make it series!!!

[@CommodoreRayne.IMP.C-1824]

I've been watching other channels play this game and I was wondering if our Mighty Gnome Overlord would play it and I have not been more excited for a while. I loved your Cold Waters and Atlantic Fleet videos from back in the day. I look forward to seeing you play this Jingles ❤

[@Uselessnoobcow]

Jingles playing sea power? Have I died and gone to heaven?!

[@JohnSmith-gb5vg]

Weeeee,not being able to sleep has one advantage; first.😊

[@TheNiittylahti]

Europeans arise, it is 11am here :)

[@theadvocatesails]

So glad to see a video by you on this!

[@RemusKingOfRome]

Glad Jingles is playing this.

[@almitov]

I don't know how much customization one could do to missions in this game but if it's a lot, it could be a good YT content generator :) For the last couple years I've been watching Growling Sidewinder's DCS vids mostly because he puts in the effort to fly unique missions and challenges in a very entertaining way. Now imagine a naval version of it with Jingles as the narrator :O Jingles, I loved the Cold Waters series and would really like to see you go on with this one too. Thumbs up!

[@julhelm1821]

We ship the game with a mission editor, so you can really create any scenario you can think of. There's a programmable trigger system as well so you can do things like scripted intelligence broadcasts, turn enemies from neutral to hostile stance and much more.

[@m00nm00n]

Seen tons of videos of this game in the past week or so. But honestly it always felt like it missed something, it missed a Jingles-coverage of the game. All well with those other channels, but, buuuuuut, they are not our Jingles.

[@Panzerzwerg]

Been waiting for this Jingles!

[@mantabloke8141]

this must be historic as this hasn't happened for about 30 years at least

[@nathand.9969]

Don't forget Jingles to unmask your CIWS and aft launchers when fighting missiles. P.S. The sea sprites also have MADs, you have to cruise at 20 ft to use them though.

[@AdurianJ]

Sweden replaced three 40mm L/70 Bofors guns with one sea cat launcher on it's last class of destroyers. That was a terrible trade in hindsight as the Bofors quickly became much better as ammunition and fire control radars improved a few years later. What's extra idiotic about it is that the Swedish air force already had the worlds first sea skimming anti ship missile in service when the Sea Cat was installed.

[@AttiliusRex]

YEEEES been waiting for jingles to vover this

[@padyx]

I was hoping u coverd this game. Love it ❤

[@oseansoldier]

Woohoo! Was really hoping to see Jingles play this game.

[@STGN01]

I was looking forward to you playing this.

[@burbs1472]

I think, if the SH-2 can launch a BOL (Bearing Only Launch) in game, the moment of torpedo detection fire off a Bloodhound on the line of bearing to mess with the firing solution of the sub. Another thing, if the helo is airborne and and the Sonar operators detects torpedo in the water, mark the initial detection location, drop an active buoy and set to deep. Typically, subs will go deep after launching their torpedo.

[@trendtraderx]

Jingles RN sinks the friendly fleet again.

[@Paveway-chan]

WHO gave Commodore Jingles McJingleberry another command? 😂 his first tour was so disastrous that youtube redacted most of it!

[@hatac]

The main reason why there are fewer fights in the straits of Hormuz is that there are pipelines bypassing it overland so no western allied tankers use the straits. Most still using it are allied to Iran such as Russia & China and one has still been attacked by some idiot. The airliner that was shot down was running a fighter jet IDFF transponder at takeoff and switched to a civilian IDFF later. That's both suicidally dumb and illegal. There are now also 2 large airbases in Oman covering the full strait with airpower that can hit the Iranian ships without leaving Oman's airspace. But you wont find the air bases on google maps.

[@shanem2k]

Remember Jingles, you have to click on one of your own ships or aircraft before requesting something to identify itself.

[@Solrac-Siul]

I see myself playing this for a long time. side note, jingles actually the alpha could reach AT LEAST 42.7 as a member of my family was in a 688 that tracked an alfa at that speed around 1980.

[@mickles1975]

I hope there are going to be more videos of this game. I quite enjoyed this one.

[@ARescueToaster]

Just a lil' tip with the ASW helicopters since the game doesn't explicitly tell you (with no tutorial yet and all) but you should be setting up a network of sonar buoys with them. I believe each carries 20 buoys on top of their magnetic scanner and dipping sonar

[@Micharus]

You did say "Microprose"? It's gonna be a pretty nice game when finished. From memory Microprose games have always been pretty bug free as a general rule and they have been around for a very long time, probably one of the longest existing 'game' studios around. I could be wrong though.
