The computerised version of the game is basically a declassified version of the US Navy's tactical simulator - or at least it was 15 years or so ago.
I played it for years in its different iterations, but could never cope with it on "full reality".

I still have the CD somewhere - I think the 2000 edition even featured mid-air refueling capabilities.

Larry was Tom Clancy's advisor on the naval combat portion of The Hunt For Red October. Smile

NB: Just done a check online - look here.

It seems they still have their Defense department links, and there's an updated commercial version too. Smile


Very interesting!

I managed to find an email adress for mr Bond at one of the sites and send him an email. Now, lets see if he answers... Smile
