     This is the third in a series of ASW scenarios that I've done.  Probably a little more realistic in terms of tactics and unit match ups.  

     The Soviet's main goal is to make sure the SSGN makes it through the area and to the patrol station safely.  Since the US sub will most likely get the first detection, use you stand-off weapons to try and eliminate the threat from a distance.  As with any ASW engagement, go slow and be patient.  

     As the US player, you'll get the first contact.  And since it's noisier than it's escort, you'll probably hear the SSGN first.  Concentrate all of your efforts on hitting and destroying this target.  Sinking the escort is a great bonus, but only attempt it if it furthers your primary mission.

     Like my last two ASW scenarios, this one is pretty much a stand alone situation.  My next step is to incorporate these into larger operations, so stand by!  Drop me a line and let me know what you think.  Enjoy!
