MartinRF 53 Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Swedish air-force pilots did a lot of showing off when we were out on the Baltic. "Look, the navy, let's have some fun!" type of... Sub? No way. A sub being that easy to detect would be very undesirable. /Martin Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In normal cases yes of course stealth mode. But for example when arriving back at home country / port in peacetime for a scheduled return then not so much. A few decades ago on approaches to the E Solent we had a navy patrol boat arrive on our seas ward side and a few mins later a periscope and contrail appeared followed by a sub surfacing in full view. There was quite a bit of excitement onboard at the time so I can’t recall exact details of our compass behaviour but we noticed something happening. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
