[Help pls]Peekaboo in the fjords

Try 1:The mission starts, my one and only sub is instantly detected by an enemy sub and it starts evading torpedoes. Eventually the first pack of torpedoes gets it.

Try 2: Mission starts and I instantly set my sub speed to crawl and depth to the maximum. Torpedoes come anyways so my sub goes on evasion mode once more and eventually dies.

Try 3: I take my only Electronic warfare plane and once its radar jam clicky has enough range I instantly activate it. Not much changes here. Torpedoes come and sub dies.

Obviously I am doing it wrong. Any ideas?

It's really hard to save that sub, but it is not essential for success in the mission. We may move around that sub a bit to make it more exciting.

Yep, thank you for the reply, mission is indeed not that hard, specially with the special abilities of your scouting plane.

In any case after a few reloads I managed to time a perfect radar jam which combined with some luck made the sub survive for quite some time. Thank you again.

Woah, let's back up a second on this thread. Is a radar jamming platform suppressing/degrading a sonar system or am I misreading the posts? If it is that is a sizable bug/glitch which really needs a correction down the road here.

I overlooked that. Just to clarify: Jamming has no effect on sonar (or any other sensor), only on radar.

JanH, Thanks for the clarification. Was concerned for a minute.
