i checked it before, they are not woth downloading, The submarins in that pack can only shot dummy torpedo

Admiral James Greer: [looking at photographs of Red October] What are these doors?
Jack Ryan: Those doors, sir, are the problem. I-I don't know what they are, neither do the British. Perhaps our friends in Murmansk have come up with something new.

This is awesome!  I also see some wing-mounted pylons, so that's a first at least for DCS.

It's taken years for ED to have semi decent working torpedoes, and besides, even the current ones are dumb, line of site, and not guided, Anti Submarine warfare is still a good ways off, so all Submarines/Sub Surface vessels are eye candy only

[Hawkeye60]

And even thou the torps we have are "dumb", (lt-58)

They will still sink ships if they contact them.

So not quite just "eye candy"

I have tested them recently.

What we need is the MK-46 torps activated.

They are in sim.

But not available to use anywhere I have found.

The MK-46 are tracking torpedoes.

Yes, the Submarine warfare is really poor reliable even with current mods. We know the underwater reaction Maneuver for a defensive move is not possible in the current implementation, but modders can make helicopters weapons release and sonar deploy, then with the editor we can make all functional with triggers. Also, the antisubmarine warfare artillery weapons in war ships should be set as fire at point to direct the fire to a posible threat area. but having a Sonar and having the weapons should not be impossible for a Ka-27 make an antisubmarine warfare by itself. Moreover, the Ka-31 airborne radar version of Ka-29, have been used in Crimea area in real war action. Ka-31 should be in DCS somehow to simulate a radar surveillance, then Ka-29 for Assault, and the Ka-27 for antisubmarine warfare. I hope @currenthill find some extra time for these 3 helicopters to be implemented in the future in his package.

I use the torps all the time I meant the Submarines themselves are more eye candy, especially modern versions that are supposed to be guided

Hi, although I haven't used it myself yet, there seem to be a very good MH-60R helicopter Mod that implements ASW using MK46 unguided and MK54 homing torpedoes. See : https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1cWuCRfE_Npqpx3HPwlp4XY5AeMcj6zzL The Mod was updated recently (November 30th), as well as its manual to work with DCS 2.9. This Mod has a surface search radar, a sophisticated dipping sonar and dropped  sonobuoys to search submarines underwater also. It features a armement console, etc. It can also be used for CSAR ops, with a diver dropped by winch and cable, that you can direct to the rescue target. Also an auto-hover feature, laser aiming, etc. The M54 homing torpedoes, once dropped, run along a spiral track to search for the submarine, which has been located by triangulation, using the sonobuoys dropped by the console operator on the armement console.  Has anybody used that Mod already ? Enjoy !

Thanks man! Do you have an estimate on when it'll land on a DCS install near me?

I never set release dates. As soon as I'm done with all the features, I test and then release. But this time I won't be releasing until the next DCS update. I need the cruise missile fixes to be implemented, otherwise I can't test the missiles correctly.

Shame, they already said they have a fix for it like over a week ago, still no patch yet
