Some friendly advice... Once you've been fired at, there's no point going back to EMCON - You're not going fast enough to clear the target area once you've been detected. And considering the situation, it could be assumed from the get go that the enemy has a pretty good idea of where you are, so in this type of scenario it's better to have early warning. Also... streaming the tail below the layer when you are escorting surface vessels is less effective as enemy subs are likely to be above the layer to detect your cargo ships. You might catch them if they have to sprint to catch up, which they would do IRL below the layer.... All this is dependent on how accurate to real world SOP the AI behaves.

@roberthavran2522Ай бұрын
I feel like strictly maintaining EMCON backfires more often than not. I mean there's time and place for EMCON for example when you know you are up against a large surface action group whose missile barrage can easily overwhelm your defences in which case maintaining stealth is crucial for survival. But in this case it allowed the enemy to launch a surprise attack.

The realities of EMCON: damned if you do, damned if you don’t. One of the hardest things to call and easy to backseat or armchair general it. A more general idea is to have a remote asset (like a helo or a Hawkeye) provide some radar at a stand-off if you expect contact; the asset you use as a radar picket is necessarily going to be semi-expendable, since it will likely attract fire as it radiates.

Ships can easily be destroyed by a single missile. The Exocets and dumb bomb hits of the Falkland war are a great example of that. Even though the fuses if the Exocets malfunctioned the kinetic energy and leftover propellant was enough to cripple a warship. Dumb bombs also failed to go off because the arming distance was to short for low level attacks against ships. The bombs don't have propellant which can cause fires and they still did critical damage to some ships just from kinetic energy alone. From a gameplay standpoint this damage model is frustrating, but in many cases it seems to be pretty realistic. Many missiles are bigger, heavier, faster and feature a bigger warhead than WW2 battleship maingun shells. Edit: The Mig 23 missile here seems to be a bit to powerful though.
@Jollygreen07Ай бұрын
Like I said, anything is possible. I’m not discounting the golden BB or lucky shot that takes out enough DC capacity to lose the ship, but it seems like every ship is totally screwed after a single hit, regardless of the missile.

It's interesting to see some of the bits of randomness. I have seen an earlier vid of another content creator who was not secure with EMCON. They dealt with the Floggers, but were ruined by the missile boats launching from north of the islands. Perhaps they are given waypoints to come south and Wolfpack's pause for the torpedo threat put them way too far ahead of when they would be in position to intercept the convoy. I get that once you know the scenario there are no more surprises, but I wonder if it's right to sweep with radar for a bit while the helos are launching just to have some sort of picture. The Floggers certainly knew to expect the convoy.

If you look at the after action reports from the Falklands conflict, fire is the biggest danger to ships and has been since the age of sail. The AI seems to concentrate on flooding first, which is not realistic. DC teams would fight fire first. There are so many flammable materials on ships of that period. Wiring... kerosene, oil and lubricant residues in the air conditioning ducts, munitions etc. What SHOULD be possible is to activate the ABC shower (basically a network of nozzles all over the superstructure that creates a cloud of sea water around the ship to wash it) - That would also help fight the fire. It would also look really cool in the game.

Not sure if they are working correctly in the game, but going dead in the water should make it easier for a wake-homing torpedo to kill your ship. The wake-homing torpedo detects the disturbance in the water left by a wake long after a ship has passed the position, then follows the disturbance back to its origin. Stopping just means it will get to your current position (the end of the wake disturbance) earlier. Luckily, the sub took its shots at you way too early.

It is a short range missile with a relative small warhead (245lb) and ships that survived hits with Harpoons in other scenarios shouldn't go down after one of these impacted. I could understand that this happens as random event in case of a magazine explosion, but it seems it is reproducible.

Are there any naval experts who care to comment on the deadliness of anti-ship missiles and the spread of fire/secondary explosions we see depicted in the Cold War era of Sea Power, and how it would likely compare to the real world in that era? On one hand, we have Sinkex events where it takes a significant number of missiles, bombs, and other munitions to destroy US Navy ships in particular, but I know they're fully prepared before hand, removing as much toxic and flammable materials, and of course, there's no munition stores. On the other hand, they often leave bulkhead doors open and there's no damage control of any kind to fight flooding. For newer ships that those depicted in Sea Power, we also have the incredible endurance, modern build quality/materials, and impressive weight-to-effectiveness ratio we witness for modern warship armor. Despite lacking the traditional heavy steel armor belts and other concepts from WWII ships, with many inches of armor in multiple layers, modern ship armor appears to be quite resilient when considering the massive reduction of pure weight - this is with the one exception of the modernized Iowa class battleships featured in Sea Power. This is then combined with very high quality training regarding fire and damage control for certain navies. Then there's the fact modern anti-ship missiles and the defensive weapons designed to defeat them have both advanced significantly. I guess I question Sea Power's modeling a bit, as it appears a majority of ships will sink with just one missile hit, almost regardless of warhead size. My unprofessional guess is that the 1980's era ships in Sea Power likely had at least a little bit better survivability. Then, regarding present-day modern defense systems (Aegis and accompanying weapon systems such as: SM-2/SM-3/SM-6/ESSM/RIM-116 RAM/CIWS/SeaRAM/autocannons/127mm or 76mm cannons/chaff/flares/electronic warfare), I believe it would be significantly more difficult to hit a modern-day warship, at least the designs which are several decades beyond Sea Power's era. I'm excluding the Moskva and Russian Navy training from this particular question/evaluation. Apparently the systems on that ship were half broken/faulty and Russian Navy crews don't have the greatest reputations. Meanwhile, we see the US Navy shooting down hundreds of targets collectively over the past year or so. I imagine the more modern designs of present-day ships allow for better protection and isolation of munitions/magazines, plus improved bulkhead design and automated fire suppression systems to isolate the spread of fire, added to quality crew training, resulting in modern warships being both more difficult to hit in the first place, and notably more resilient to being entirely knocked-out/sunk if they were hit, in comparison to the ships and era depicted in Sea Power. I'd love to hear from someone who is highly educated or experienced on this topic though.

Damn, I don't know but it seems missiles are way too OP (at this version) at least.. one missile always cripple a ship trough fires or sheer damage.. probably they will fix this when the game releases

Kind of curious what was up the with AI of that last missile boat. Does the AI actually "dock" like that or did it just path into shallow water and get stuck?

Would be cool if you could do some missions without knowing how many enemy ships there are... maybe prepared by someone else

Does the game provide the effectiveness of the sonobuoys after they're dropped. Direct path or Convergence Zone ranges?

Hey ! I like your video but i have one question regarding those scenario : the lack of civilian ships and plane. One of the main challenge in a "modern" confrontation would be the hight number of civilian ships and plane, crusing everywhere. Is it "too heavy" for the game to handle to much civilian traffic ?

Obviously I haven't played the game yet, but I feel like as soon as you saw those tracks heading towards you with obviously ill intent you should have manually marked them hostile and had the ships go weapons free to let them attack automatically against those targets. Don't quite understand letting them get to like a mile out before doing anything about them, lol.

I hope in the future there will be added also modern ships.
