I confirm that P-500 Bazalt (SS-N-12 Sandbox) had to be launched from the surface after several minutes of preparations. Although technically advanced to some extent, the missile was command-guided in the beginning stage of the flight (either from the SSGN or from the Bear-D (TU-95RT) which had coordinates of the target and could overtake the guidance of the whole missile salvo).

yes but in the game the missile can be launched also in immersion.

Cannot test it right now (and the launch depths are not visible in DB), but if it's so, it's a bug.

Here is an example scenario to illustrate the DB problem with also the ss-n-3 shaddock, i think it will be sufficient to set the launch depth to 0
