INTRODUCTION
S
ubWar 2050 is a unique simulation. It combines elements of submarine
warfare, flight simulation and strategy game; set in a realistic future world
scenario.
You take the part of one of the new breed of submariners, piloting the latest in
marine technology; the fighter sub. Working for huge corporations as an
independent mercenary, each mission you carry out is rewarded in hard cash.
One moment, you are battling using tactics which are drawn from air warfare. The
next, you are diving deep to reduce your cavitation and coming to a halt to reduce
your passive sonar visibility.
Varied missions in four theatres of war, simulated combat mode and a full
complement of training missions make SubWar 2050 the definitive underwater
combat simulation.
