I've just completed it. It was quite enjoyable. While the Edson was staying on top of that Foxtrot, one of my Recon Skywarriors was able to locate a Sverdlov cruiser, and take pics of it. I sent the Galveston to stay within SAM-Surface-Attack range and keep an eye on her. I also had the Skate move into the Sverdlov's baffles and got sonar data before resuming her own search. Some time later, USS Perry detects another underwater contact, and with help from my Neptunes, It was classified as another Foxtrot. After about 36 hours of watching all 3 of these Soviet Vessels, I get warning of possible military action from the Soviets. A few hours later, without warning, USS Edson comes under torpedo attack from the Foxtrot she is watching. I immediately order both Edson and Perry to sink their respective Foxtrots, and have Galveston fire off 4 Talos missiles at the Sverdlov to damage it's sensors and fire control before engaging with guns. As the battle starts, a pair of SLBMs fire from a previously undetected submarine, they end up hitting land about 20-30 miles south of Kodiak, so they apparently missed their target, causing no damage to my assets. Perry dispatches her Foxtrot with ASROCs, while Edson is in a duel her Foxtrot, struggling to get a hit against repeated torpedo attacks. Eventually, Edson loses, while the Foxtrot is later sunk by a Neptune. Galveston is able to cripple the Sverdlov with missiles, and then sink her with 6-inch gunfire, while receiving no damage herself. Perry is able to close on and sink the Golf SSB with ASROCs. For the remainder of the scenario time, I struggle to find other targets. I was able to detect and fix a November SSN, but she went too deep and I was unable to successfully engage. Scenario ended with the end of the clock. Score was Major Victory with 130 I never located any Biologics, which seems unusual for an ASW scenario.
