Key Features of Soviet Submarines

The main role of the new branch in battle is to counter other submarines. Soviet submarines' torpedoes have low damage and long reload time, but good range and speed. The number of loaders allows only part of the bow and stern torpedo tubes to be reloaded simultaneously similar to how it works on the American submarines. These torpedo characteristics do not allow for high damage per torpedo salvo, so they are less effective against targets with good torpedo protection and good HP pools.

 

In addition to torpedoes, all submarines in the branch have a player-controlled main battery. It has a low range and number of guns, so it is most often used in combat with other submarines or with ships that have low remaining hit points. Only SAP shells are available.

 

The new submarines have an average dive capacity and low recharge rate. They also have a mediocre concealment, which is compensated for by a good speed on the surface.
