If I were the special forces team I would simply blow up the radar

Vahakyla posted:I'm typing some expectations here, just so that we can be on the same page going forward. I'd guesstimate that both in Arma 3 and DCS, we will take the dial of nerdiness and click it one step higher from here on out. To not feel like we're just pulling the rug, the next Arma 3 mission will serve as a sort of onboarding activity where we'll have a training map open before go time, and we'll help anyone get ready. I will uh, take driving more seriously next time. And remind myself that Arma only tracks velocity, not momentum when it comes to collision damage.

My intent: in the absence of other naval assets I will establish contact with and determine the disposition of 1st PLAN Fleet, specifically forces protecting sealift moving to the beach and the location of the SAG conducting operations further out to sea. I assume PLAN will be conducting sea control and ASW operations in a zone parallel with their land forces to screen them and protect unloading operations. I will seek to define this area and then bypass it to the East rather than penetrate it directly, attempting to make contact with the main PLAN SAG. Having ascertained their location and as much information on composition as possible, I will then break contact. I will strike targets of opportunity only if I can do so without risking counter attack.

Having ascertained their location and as much information on composition as possible, I will then break contact. I will strike targets of opportunity only if I can do so without risking counter attack. Mission report: ARA San Juan 4-5th March 2010 Patrol commenced at 2000 local. I proceeded East at cruise speed, come up to periscope depth every hour on the hour to take ELINT readings. Signals suggested 2 vessels acting as a forward screen, with emissions from 2 helicopters detected further south (at one point in the patrol emissions from 3 helicopters at once were detected, but otherwise never more than two). At 0424Z(0024 Local) I encountered a Type 037-IG Houxin Gunship at S52`25`18, W66`06`47. I observed it to pass North and East over me and then an hour later reacquired it heading due south at W66. I summarised that this represented the northern extent of PLAN patrol areas. I then shadowed the Gunboat south. Heading south I continued to take ELINT soundings on the hour, which allowed me to describe a box within which PLAN aircraft were operating. I continued until 0900Z (0500 Local), at which point I detected a Navigation and Surface to Air FCR at close range to the East. After diving and then surfacing 5 minutes later I was able to determine the contact's course and plotted an intercept. At 0930Z sonar resolved the contact as a MV Asterix type vessel - known from intel to be PLAN operated in the area. Noting the target was high value and appeared to be unescorted I resolved to attack. As I was directly in the MV's course I maneuvered SE for a perpendicular attack run. At 0942Z and with the MV 3NM distant sonar resolved an underwater contact approximately 6.6nm away and on the opposite side of the ship. I paused my attack on the possibility that it was an escorting PLAN submarine, but at 0947Z the contact was positively resolved as biologics. At the local time was dawn I made a shallow approach, raising the periscope briefly to confirm there were no close emitters. At 0948Z I launched a 4 NT47 torpedoes at the target at a range of 2NM and turned on a NE heading. At 0950Z indications of 3 torpedo impacts were observed. I then sprinted for 15 minutes at full speed before slowing to a creep and continuing NE. Having put the last position of the MV over the horizon at 1451Z I briefly raised periscope and detected emissions from multiple surface and air contacts in close proximity. I continued on a bearing of 69.9 degrees (back-tracing the MV's course) until 2112Z whereupon I raised periscope again, at this point all radar emitters were located within the ordinary observed patrol box and I summarised that I had successfully evaded detection. At the time of writing I am continuing to follow a reciprocal course to the PLAN MV of 57 deg at S52`25`25, W64`04`44. I am commencing snorkelling to recharge my batteries and intend to attempt to make contact with any PLAN naval forces IVO the Falklands to establish their operational area.

I will do it. I will sink the Moskva. e: seriously, accidentally done the shaping for this operation. PLAN is now aware that they have a hostile submarine operating to the East of their patrol zone and sitting astride their sea supply route between the beach and the Falklands AOR. They have to either extend that patrol zone to the east, accept the risk to their shipping, or cease whatever operations were underway. If they extend the patrol zone then that will thin out the ASW presence around the beach which will give me an opportunity to re-approach and attack. I can then go to ground to evade counter-attack and when you see the big moskva shaped explosions the airforce can come in to sweep away any asw air assets and maybe attack a frigate or two and give me an escape hatch. Joint operations across two games! Alchenar fucked around with this message at 23:15 on Jan 7, 2024 |

9 MAR S42 San Suan - Mission Log On approaching the Falkland Islands I observed a PLAN Square Tie Radar operating at the following coordinates.  Plotting a course north and to the west of the islands I detected indications of intense ASW activity, at one point emissions from 7 air contacts were observed in the vicinity south and west of the Square Tie. I summarised that as indications of a significant PLAN air buildup on the West Falklands. At approximately 0700 ZULU I detected a vessel immediately identified as a Civilian commercial trawler.  Detected no other contacts and judging the ASW activity in the shallows to be too intense to attempt to penetrate, I set a Westerly course to see if I could detect any PLAN surface contacts operating in the area but no contact made. As of 00:05:19 ZULU I am at S54'35, W64'43. An uneventful 24 hours.

San Juan - Mission Report 17 March 2010 Plotted a course south intending to intercept the invasion fleet on return to Ushuaia in or around the La Marie Strait. An Emcon sounding revealed two likely ASW patrol contacts, one appearing south of the invasion area and one appearing in a blocking position directly SW. I replotted a course around the observed blocking patrol and decided to risk a deep sprint followed by snorkelling once past it to reach my intercept point. I bypassed the patrol area, but unfortunately while snorkelling detected close EMCON and was forced to go deep and evade East. Active Sonarbuoys were detected in my wake but no attack was prosecuted. Approximately 19 hours into mission I arrived at the intercept point and waited. The ASW contact that prosecuted me appeared to have returned to its standing patrol. The single contact that had been at the invasion area had progressively been noted moving SE along the coastline and by 24 hours into mission was approximately 25-30NM NW of my position at S54'37'08, W64'51'00. No surface contacts detected. In my sleep God gave me a vision where he showed me a shipwreck getting blown up by Chinese rockets.
