RaTzo Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 I would absolutely love to see a CH-124 Sea King in the game. Now that submersibles are finding their way in we need to add ASW into the mix. While I'm personally partial to the CH-124A variant, it could begin with the B models which use the same sorts of systems used on fixed wing ASW aircraft. I have expertise on both these airframes MAD, SONO, and SONAR systems. Would be willing to consult.

Blackjack_UK Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Nearly 3000 hours on Sea Kings, though Commando variant rather than a pinger. Happy to consult as well... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capn kamikaze Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 You can sort of simulate ASW with fixed wing aircraft like the S-3 using the ground attack option, drop a bomb like a Mk-82 from the bomb bay as a stand in for a torpedo, use bomb in zone to set a flag, then set a trigger based off that flag using "time since flag" with say a 30 second delay, and then use explode unit to blow up a submerged submarine nearby. It looks fairly realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ED incoming the Mine bomb on F/A-18C Hornet -Mk-40 Destructor Sea Mine -Mk-63 Quickstrike Sea Mine That can be efective vs ships and submarines, that can be add to S-3, not strangle ED add ASW torpedoes on ships, helos and aircraft on a future, as Depth charges.

Evoman Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 It seems like the new current DCS ecosystem of expanded naval operations is really going to make the S-3 Viking capabilities very useful. The S-3 would be be the only aircraft that can do anti-submarine warfare, aerial refueling, surface surveillance, surface warfare and electronic warfare. And on top of that it can operate off carrier decks. It even has a built in APU capable of unassisted starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Burns Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Is anyone discussing building an S-3, they can even do VIP escorts: You can decide what VIP stands for! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
