Introduction

During the opening phases of combat, ships which meet certain requirements are able to perform opening ASW attacks. These attacks are valuable because they have the opportunity to sink submarines before they get the chance to perform opening torpedoes.

Overview

1. All ships with an ASW stat are capable of performing OASW.

2. Upgrades to ASW equipment are not counted towards the thresholds for triggering OASW.

3. OASW attacks are performed in range order.

  • Attacks from ships with the same range are random.

4. Damage is calculated the same way as normal ASW.
