I about fell over laughing when I saw that going on.....cumulative effects giving a boat 25 knots.....that feature turned out to be really "gamey". I don't know that it is fixable...I can see how it would be great in having folks on board that are specialists in radar, hydrophone and repair work.
I know some folks are trying to see if its at all workable and reasonable, time will tell.
In reality, the Fleet Boats had a lot of issues with their diesels. I cannot remember which boat it was but during her patrol they were hard pressed to keep just one engine up and running out of four. That might be a little to much reality.
