In DotMod, there's actually a little indicator next to the "Active Sonar" button that indicates whether you can leave combat. Red means no, green means yes.

Improvements over the German type XXI U-boat is that whiskey-class submarine is slower, louder and with fewer bow tubes. In short, Whiskey-class was outdated by the time when first boat of this class was commissioned. 😫😫😫 Edit: I dig VHS "like" image, Wolf

The Whiskey is faster on the surface, but slower submerged. However, the Whiskey has longer submerged endurance. The Whiskey has 6 torpedo tubes, 4 in the bow and 2 in the stern. This is a good arrangement for a balanced load out. The 4 bow tubes can be used for anti surface ship torpedoes, while the 2 stern tubes can be used for an anti submarine torpedo and a noisemaker decoy.

One of the things I loved about your IL2 campaign as the soviets was that it is so much more interesting when you're the underdog.

Been going through your old playlists, as a newer subscriber, and just finished a few of your Cold Water campaigns so this was a pleasant surprise! Crazy how different you play the WW2 and late 20th century era subs. Great videos man - Look forward to the next!

Anything wolfpack345 and submarine related brings me joy! I ran out of old sh3 videos months ago. I literally bought Coldwaters because of your videos. Cheers to a new series!

@HobbitJack better off to write the entire game's code from scratch.. Rather than editing the binary code.. Or if somehow coldfish studio willing to sell Coldwaters sourcecode.. Adding the multiplayer through network support As well as tactical planning in the same breath as say silent hunter.. Utilizing all the dotmod assets so far which in itself already fantastic in my book.. And publish the spiritual successor of cold waters.. But the question which is lingering and hovering about is the profit. Simulation game by nature easily classifies as a niche market.. More so submarine simulation.

My experience with Dot Mod: 1. Diesels don't face Nuclear subs. Upgrade to the Foxtrot and may be Juliet and you will be fine. 2. Avoid switching to a Nuclear sub until you get one with wire guided torpedoes. Victor III is the earliest and cheapest I think. Nuclear subs without wired torpedoes are dead the moment they see a MK48. SET-65 has very little chance of hitting a 30+ kn sub even if you do get that close. A Charlie 1 career is very fun until you meet an enemy sub. 3. Your best bet with SET-65 against subs is to get close, 2-3 km, and launch two circle running torpedoes at the enemy sub's expected point of interception. If you get into the baffles, you may be able to send a passive SET-65 in their ass. Unlike vanilla they will not detect it if it is passive and in their baffles. 4. SET-65 and the TEST-71 (Note the lack of an M, only on the Tango last time I played) can't hit surface targets, you need the wake homing ones for that. Test-71M (note the M) can hit both subs and surface ships and has decent range. If you get a sub with it, it is a lot like the US submarines. 5. For Juliet and Echo you need to be at 3 meters or above to launch missiles. The best way to do that is to: 1. Go to periscope depth. 2. Hit maximum speed, maximum planes and maximum balast. 3. Raise Radar, launch missiles and crash dive. If you set the depth to 0 it takes forever for the sub to go above 3 meters so don't use it. The escorts WILL shoot Harpoons at you and they can hit you. 6. Carry several decoys. Try to avoid encounters that are not your primary target as much as possible. Sneak away from subs if able. You just don't have the ammo to get them all. Until you get the TEST-71M at least.

Diesels DO face nukes. You can read his next mission description for example, I also got SSN fight on my second mission once. SpecOps intercept with 2 SSNs at once can be rolled on ANY SS/SSK as well. Also, I completed the entire campagn on SS/SSK once, without resets and death, and there were plenty of SSN intercepts, even in the early days. And because UK nukes are super rare, it means at least 2-4 Mk.48 coming your way on the wires, because they WILL detect you from 5-8 ky or so on passive if conditions are not 90+dB, with strong layer, even if you are going ultra quiet on Foxtrot. This is why anything that can move faster than 15 kts is essential since war day 1. Even if it is a November, pick it unless you are like 20 points short of Victor I. Charlie I is also decent but I dont like its top speed. Force them to wire break, evade guidance cone of the incoming Mk.48s, push closer to spam even more SET-65-III and are you are golden.

Wolf you suprised me with another cold waters series but I like it!

So what exactly was the plan for Whiskey boats by the mid/late cold war? I get the impression that they hoped to hold them in reserve and if the war lasted more than a month or so, enough enemy subs would be killed that the waters become relatively safe. The other option would be wolf packs where one goes active and is bait while the others shoot.

By the mid 80's the Soviet navy had already gotten rid of most of its Whiskeys. A bunch were sold to friendly nations and most of the older ones had been scrapped. Whatever was left was converted to do just about any job that was available, training vessels, missile test platforms, radar pickets, and even research subs to study fisheries. If war had broken out by that point I expect they'd only be deployed in a SHTF last ditch scenario or just regulated to coastal defense duties.
