Would anyone be interested in this? Is there already a mod anywhere that already does this? I'd love to to see a mod that not only shows the presence of the towed array but also factors the towed array in more heavily. In fact Cold Waters doesn't even show it as part of the ownship view. The references to your towed array are limited. In Cold Waters, towed arrays are noted in ship versions where one has a towed array and one does not (such as the Sturgeon class) and they show up in your sonar display panel. Dangerous Waters lets you put port & starboard towed arrays out, you can control the length of cable and you have to be concerned with turning when the towed arrays are in use. They provide a real operational challenge and yet the benefits the provide are crucial.ĭangerous Waters and other games that came before Cold Waters actually show the towed array streaming out behind the ship and gives you control over it directly. There are plenty of reported stories ( and probably many more unreported incidents) where ships have snagged and fouled (or have been fouled by) towed arrays from other ships. I've always been fascinated by towed sonar arrays and the ship handling and operational difficulties they introduce.
