Description Silent Service
You are now a member of the Silent Service, the U. S. Navy's Submarine Command. For a long time after Pearl Harbor, you are the only force capable of striking back at the Japanese in the Pacific. Take one of the 'fleet ships' and go on long patrols of up to 2 months from Hawaii, Australia or New Zealand. Set your difficulty/realism level and time period (early on means less tech for juicier targets, later means tougher escorts, more tech, meaner targets). Fight against factors like unused torpedoes, maximum depth and others.
You can choose to practice against some old hulks, recreate historical convoy attacks, go on a single patrol, or go on your own campaign, which allows you to go on multiple patrols until you die, get promoted, or survive the war.
