Guest Posted March 8, 2003 We at the Chain of Command are pleased to inform you that we are working on a torpedo pack for OFP. The addon will be usable by standard OFP ships and planes. Several types light and heavy-weight Western and Eastern torpedoes will be included such as [*]Mark 46 [*]Mark 48 [*]Mark 50 [*]VA-111 Shkval [*]UGST [*]53-65KE [*]UMGT-1ME Several types of of standard guidence systems will be included [*] LTP (Linear Trajectory Prediction) [*] DTM (Direct Trajectory Mapping) [*] LSQTP (Least Square Trajectory Prediction) Here are some screenshots of DTM in action. After a contact is detected within the search cone, the tracking is enagaged and the torpedo arms itself and starts following the target. A big effort will be made to make the behaviour of the torpedoes as realistic as possible. The algorithms used for the guidance are for most part identical to the ones used in real things.

earl 0 Posted March 8, 2003 Amazing stuff - I've never really considered the naval aspect of OFP. It should make for some interesting battles at sea, especially if somebody would make an archipelago theatre. I can't wait to see the Shkval in action! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peanuckle_00 0 Posted March 8, 2003 Ship sinking torpedoes shot off of helos and boats is a mighty fine idea. Not only is it a new addition to what kinds of warfare we can have but it is also an opportunity for those heli makers that have nothing left to make. It's time to do your research guys. There are a few nice ships out there to work on sinking. Edit: Great job team CoC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
~Too Tall~ 0 Posted March 8, 2003 ya i cant wait to strip the FFAR pods off that UH60 form BIS and stick 2 torpedos on it. mabe someone could also make an animated sonar bouy for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hellfish6 7 Posted March 8, 2003 Does this mean that we have targets for the torpedoes coming? I know the Falklands mod has some ships, but is there anything else? About the only thing worth shooting with a torpedo now is the LSD. Â Don't get me wrong, I think this is really cool and a definate showcase for what OFP can do, but I'd really like something worthwhile to kill with them. A patrol boat? That's like using a nuke to kill an ant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pzvg 0 Posted March 8, 2003 But is the MK48 the stock version or ADCAP? Serious suggestion, since you've got the torps working MK46 <air dropped from SH-60 or SH-2 LAMPS> CAPTOR mines. Ah the possibilities Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jinef 2 Posted March 9, 2003 If i joined the Navy i would be doing ASW with those things, but i don't like the whole water thing. Now all we need is a lynx mk9 with torps and a good water model. Actually i was playing enigma rising tide and that with helicopters would be fantastic. Ofp could really expand if we could just get a proper sea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
