Questions about sonobuoys
On mission 3 of the Never Fade Away campaign and after 3 attempts I get obliterated by random torpedos from a submarine every time. I’ve always had helis dropping sonobuoys in lines on both sides of the group, so they’ll all be 15nm away from the group as the ships pass by (which is apparently supposed to be the maximum distance any ship can read them). However, I never find this damn submarine. So this brings two questions to mind:
- Do sonobuoys transmit between eachother? Can I read all of them as long as they are all in range of eachother?
- Is there a better method to this I am not understanding?
For context the lines I am dropping the buoys in are both straight, right ahead
