Being a member of the Silent Service of the US Navy you take command of a Gato/Balao class submarine and go on extended patrols in the dangerous waters of the Pacific in world war II.

Control your submarine, use your strengths and find the weak spots of your enemy. Only that way you have a chance to survive this thrilling 3d simulation. Run silent, run deep!

The PC version is a port of the iOS mobile app version of 2016, but with updated features. The Roadmap on the Steam page (https://steamcommunity.com/app/846050/discussions/0/1734336452575111311/) talks about enemy aircraft and AAA.
