But can you get it past a P-8A? That is the question!!!!
Hehe! I'm currently failing to find a Chinese sub with a P-8A in your "Fiery Cross Reef"; I know it's there as I detected it killing a whale! It's likely just a matter of time though, with enough sonobuoy saturation.

Heh, trying using cold war era soviet equipment to detect NATO diesel subs. Basically impossible. In my current scenario (the first of the Mediterranean Fury series) I have multiple Hormones, Mails, and surface ships with active sonars blasting away, and I can at best get an intermittent contact of a Type 209 at a depth of 131 feet. All four torpedoes fired have not been able to find it, either.

The the PLAN Type 039B SSN must be a railroad locomotive then I've caught 11 times trying to get into Sagami Bay! [:D] [8D] [8|]

I was Navy, but Assigned TAD to the 24th MAU Hq in Beirut. By far the finest period of my service!
