Hello, Can someone tell what I am donig wrong in the mission I have attached (mod reqiured). Even better if someone could post a mission where the vanilla DCS sub shoots a torpedo that would be great. I would rather not use the mod. I can not get them to shoot torps. I searched and only found the mod and it could be done, but I mmust be doing something wrong. Thanks for the help. Kindly, J subs.miz

Hi everyone, As of 2.9.0.47168 the S-3B Tanker unit has been implemented in DCS. What's interesting about it (and something I'm quite pleased about) is that it actually depicts a different configuration compared to the regular S-3B. The regular S-3B is depicted in its earlier configuration, accurate from 1988 - 1998. This appropriate for our post SLEP Forrestal in the early 90s, both our current Tomcats as well as the early F-14A-135-GR and the Gulf War. The S-3B Tanker however, appears to be depicted post 1998 after the ASW deconfiguration program (which involved the AN/ASQ-81 MAD boom being deleted and blanked over, as well as 44 of the 60 sonobuoy chutes). This is perfect for CVNs 71-75 as part of the supercarrier module, the F/A-18C, both our current Tomcats and the Iraq War. However, as part of the ASW deconfiguration program, the antennas for the sonobuoy reference system were also deleted. These are 8 7 small, blade antennas - there are 4 3 under the fuselage near and on the main landing gear doors and 2 under each wing. However, despite the AN/ASQ-81 MAD boom being deleted and the sonobuoy chutes correctly blanked off, the antennas are still present: EDIT: The forward most blade antenna is actually still present on aircraft that have undergone the ASW deconfiguration program - thank you Flappie and developers for checking The non-tanker S-3B is pre-ASW deconfiguration, so these antennas are accurate for it and should be left as is. It's only the S-3B tanker, depicted post-ASW deconfiguration, where them being present is inaccurate. Obviously a very minor issue, but one that's hopefully easily fixed (after all the MAD boom has been removed).
