The stats use to calculate damage against submarine is {{ASW}} ASW.

The stats used to calculate damage against submarines is the {{ASW}} ASW.

* When contributing to ASW power, Base {{ASW}} ASW is '''square rooted''', while equipment ASW is '''multiplied by 1.5'''

*When contributing to ASW power, Base {{ASW}} ASW is '''square rooted''', while equipment ASW is '''multiplied by 1.5'''

** ASW equipment is therefore the primary source of ASW damage, with base ASW playing a very minor role.

**[[:Category:Anti-submarine Weaponry|Anti-submarine weaponry]] is therefore the primary source of ASW damage, with the base ship ASW playing a very minor role damage-wise.

** However, base ASW is the primary determinant of whether a ship can reach 100 total ASW to perform opening ASW attacks.

**However, base ship ASW is the primary determinant of whether a ship can reach 100 total ASW to perform '''"[[#Opening ASW Shelling (OASW)|Opening ASW]]"''' (OASW) attacks.

* Unlike sheeling ASW damage is capped at 170.

*Unlike sheeling, ASW damage is capped at 170.

*ASW attacks are the only one to have [[Formation]]s damage modifier above 1, with  {{ToolTip|[[Combat#Formation_Selection|Line Abreast]]|[[File:LineAbreast.png]]}} being the highest at x1.3 ({{ToolTip|[[Combined_Fleet#Formation_Selection|Cruising Formation 1]]|[[File:Formation_1.png]]}} for [[Combined Fleet]]s).

ASW attacks have different modifiers gained from [[Formation]]s,

*{{ToolTip|[[Combat#Formation_Selection|Line Abreast]]|[[File:LineAbreast.png]]}} is the main ASW formation, with a 1.3x damage modifier,

*{{ToolTip|[[Combined_Fleet#Formation_Selection|Cruising Formation 1]]|[[File:Formation_1.png]]}} is the main ASW formation for [[Combined Fleet]]s, with a 1.3x damage modifier.
