Note: This mission takes place after Mace the Bear.
Unseen by NATO, 2 Oscar-class submarines left their berths in Sevastopol several weeks ago.
An hour ago, you were unceremoniously woken from the first decent sleep you've had in a month.
"Battlestations. All crew report to Battlestations. This is not a drill."
As you bolt out of bed, the XO pops in.
"Get ready. You're going up."
"What the hell's going on? An attack?"
"The Ticonderoga's been hit. Not sure by what. Either a mine or torpedo."
"Torpedo?! Holy hell."
"Yeah, it's bad. We've got Seahawks dropping sonobuoys all over the place looking for the bastard but nothing yet. I want you in the air on stand-by. If we find any subs, you'll be the one to hit'em."
"Gotcha. Ready in 3."
Start up, launch and proceed to Waypoint 1. There are two subs in the area (see Mission Planner). If they are spotted, sink them before they slip away or attack the fleet.
Good luck.

Type 93 subs are (ahem) subbing for the Oscars.
Sinking subs with Mavs is not easy. Your AP gun rounds will be very helpful.
