That being said - time does funny things with memories. Sure, the 5/54" was a maintenance nightmare and a 1,200 lb steam powered ship was, well, you remember. The SH-2 was a fun and handy, but limited helo. Funny though, I do in some way miss the old ASROC.
Especially some of the fun things it could carry (though not the inspections that came with it).
Anyway. It wasn't all that exciting - though a single screw ship makes you a good driver. Lots of ships with lots of underway time gave you lots of good drivers. At least they had their torpedo tubes internal (easier to sink you ship if they explode that way, ahem) and didn't have the external triple mount MK-32.
