![]() ![]() The in-game Typhoon bears a much closer resemblance to the real world Shchuka-class submarines of the Soviet Navy (Russian: Щука, means Pike), including its characteristic teardrop shaped rear sonar housing.They were some of the largest submarines ever built, with over 500 feet in length. The Typhoon-class submarine was actually a nuclear submarine in service in the real life USSR, however, the real-life Typhoon was a class of ballistic missile submarines, not attack submarines.Oddly, Typhoon can target enemy walls, even though it is impossible for them to do so as they cannot target land units and buildings.Pre-release cameos, in order: alpha, beta. Note: in Red Alert 2, the Typhoon attack submarine shares its quotes with the dreadnought, except while moving, when it just plays the underwater bubbling sound. Typhoons controlled by the AI have the following attack patterns: In the Soviet campaign of Red Alert 2, the Typhoon is first available to the player in Hostile Shore. ![]() Typhoons also have no defense against aircraft and, unlike the Destroyer, cannot attack ground units. Typhoon attack submarines can be intentionally surfaced by friendly fire as well. While the submarines themselves are invisible, the torpedoes are not, which allows an observant player to more or less guess the location of the submarines even if the player can't see the submarines. Typhoons are, in turn, also capable of detecting and firing on other submerged units. Only boomers, destroyers, dolphins and giant squids can detect them while they are submerged. They are invisible while submerged and will only surface if they are under attack or a naval unit has come too close to them. The Typhoon is the first naval combat unit available to Soviet commanders, and requires only a naval yard to construct them. The Typhoon was replaced by the Akula submarine in the Third World War's third iteration, which, like the original submarine, must surface to fire. This new force of submarines was even more potent than the first, capable of remaining permanently submerged, unless heavily damaged or detected by Allied forces. With this in mind, he commissioned a new force of submarines, under the direction of General Vladimir. Although the Soviet Union was forced to disarm after his defeat, Romanov realized that a fleet of new submarines would be vital for a new secret attack force to destroy Allied forces in the United States. When Stalin led the Union in Second World War, he utilized a fleet of submarines in an attempt to dominate the seas. ![]()
