Normally, as soon as the boat surfaces, one of the diesels is used to recharge the batteries rather than to drive the sub's electric motor. When running submerged, the sub runs on battery power. Releases bubble emitting decoys that might confuse enemy sonar-men aiding you in evading tracking. This maneuver is often used when there is a strong likelihood that you have or soon will be spotted an enemy aircraft or surface craft. Orders an immediate dive followed by a 90 degree turn to starboard. Unlike the Crash Dive command, this one levels out at 80 feet.This maneuver is often used when there is a strong likelihood that you have or soon will be spotted by an enemy aircraft or surface craft. Orders an immediate dive followed by a 90 degree turn to port. Can allow any nearby astute enemy sonar-man to locate you.Anything more than 1000 feet is just reported as 1000 feet. Orders the sonar-man to send a single ping and to report back on the depth of the water immediately under your keel. This order can be given via the button or via the "p" key.For that reason more prudent captains will often issue a command to dive to a greater depth (100feet?) instead of just issuing the Periscope Depth command. While this IS generally sufficient to avoid damage from most planes, there is still a possibility that you will be spotted and other aircraft advised of your location, bearing and speed. Take the boat to the standard 60 foot periscope depth. Replenishing compressed air is generally not an issue unless your on-board compressor has been damaged.The more leisurely Surface command, the "S" key, will bring you to the surface more gradually but will not expend as much compressed air.This command is the fastest way to surface but uses a lot of your compressed air supply.Without subsequent commands crush depth can quickly be passed.īlow all ballast and take the boat up quickly.
Doing this in deep water is only safer for a time. If this is done in shallow water damage will most likely result from striking the bottom too quickly. Useful in quickly returning to your main battle station.įlood all main tanks and speed up to flank to take the boat down as quickly as possible.
