Submarines - WT Discussion

Plane carried would be the main point of carriers, not the guns. They can carry like what 30planes? and you would be able to launch them right at the start of the battle, while currently we can only spawn in 2 planes and you need points for them. This is not the same.

Maybe we’ll be able to send AI waves of planes, or control a squadron ourselves who knows.

ive heard nimitz class can do up to 130 hornets or 85-90 mixed assortment of aircraft

Carriers are very cool, but I’m worried they would make naval to ground 2.0, where CAS ruins all the fun pretty often.

I don’t remember when I died to a plane in Naval, carriers would change that.

Okay that’s way more than 30 😅

imagine 130 hornets, each can carry 4 harpoons, basically guaranteed death to like 40 DDG’s

for ww2 stuff, USS enterprise could take up to 96 aircraft, Essex could take up to 100, and Midway could take 130 in ww2 config

lots of aircraft should be effective ingame because it was a pretty good way to take out ships until proxy fuse became widespread. would give something for the huge AA batteries on some ships to deal with

Subs ? oh … please … no —> just no

why not? they are huge part of naval combat in all time periods depicted in war thunder naval

Ark Royal (91) was designed to carry 72 aircraft, “actually” carried 50 to 60 aircraft (according to wikipedia), that’s still quite a few. I think the point of carriers would be to spawn aircraft for basically free.

Here is the Aircraft Carrier topic:

Braviy will solve that with it 10km no fly zone :D

My Scharnhorst has a 15km no bravyzone tho 🤣

Submarine launched missiles, not sure if the Germans actually tested it, but looks cool!

Braviy can hide like cockroach )))

Tell that to the countless examples I’ve ended…

What about Zeppelins and WW1 planes ???

WW1 planes are a huge +1 for me, as I want my Fokker Dr.1 and Albatros D.III. Been playing Rise of Flight and Wings over Flanders Fields for years!
Zeppelins could be interesting.

But this topic is about submarines

I would LOVE if WW1 got explored in its entirety for each vehicle type.

They just became submarines to hide before you xD

Of you are after realism, isn’t that as close to real as you can get? How many died in WW2 as a result from being on a ship that couldn’t detect or counter a sub?

check redit because my friend gets information there

but I emphasize that I don’t know if it’s true because I haven’t seen it either, that’s why I’m commenting on it here
