(CCPlays) Cold Waters (Dot Mod): Arleigh Burke DDG vs multiple PLAN FFs (Custom/2000)
One of fun things with dotMod is you can play surface ships now, and I decided to use the mission editor to test just this! Last one, CG vs 3 FF was too easy, so, let's take it up a notch: DDG vs 4 FF?
-----
In an area just south of Taiwan, an Arleigh Burke guided missile destroyer is patrolling.
ESM and sonar had just detected multiple surface contacts coming in from the north...
------
Captain authorized call to general quarters, and radar turned on. Multiple contacts to the north, but there are also multiple merchants. Must not fire first nor hit any civilians.
Captained ordered turn to east, and go to ahead half. Enemies are roughly 30+ km away, intentions unknown, numbers unknown, but more than 2.
Roughly ten minutes later, sonar called out multiple launch transients from north, and radar reported multiple vampires inbound.
Captain ordered all ahead flank, and air defense on auto.
Multiple SAMs are launched on auto after crew confirmation. One by one, the ASMs are intercepted. Enemy is still 37 km away.
Once all vampires are down, captain order course 45. We can see a Jianghu3 and a Jiangwei is heading south toward me. Behind them in the distance appears to be two other PLAN vessels of similar sizes.
When distance reached 29 km, the other PLAN Navy vessel started launching ASMs, but slowly. We responded one at a time.
Range continues to close, and when distance reached 20 km, everybody started shooting their front cannons.
But the superior gunnery skills (and radar-aimed cannon) proved ot be effective, as the Arleigh Burke dropped enough rounds on both to send them to Davy Jones' locker.
Arleigh Burke continued NNW. There were two other Chinese PLAN vessels, a Chengdu, and a Jianghu. At 25 km one started firing antiship missiles, then at 20 both started shooting their guns.
I decided to test SAM as a mini-ASM, and fired one at the Chengdu, which is really a patrol boat. And surprisingly, it worked quite well... As the Chengdu sank after one hit.
Tried launching 3 different SAM/ASM at the final ship, but none hit. Seems this ship knows how to use the chaff rockets, and none of the missiles hit. Had to get closer and use guns. But in the end the result is the same.
