I'm not sure that it can be blown up, at least, I've never succeeded
at doing so.  I only get "mission complete" after shooting down four
migs, or if my memory isn't gone (which is possible), after shooting
down three migs and firing a couple of missles into the top part of
the conning tower of the enemy sub.

It would have been nice to see the sub go up in flames, though.

Ever try landing on the enemy sub?  You can do it, but you need to
stomp on the brakes real quick because the deck's so short.  You'll
get a laugh out of what happens next - remember it's a RUSSIAN sub
that you've landed on.

Taking off is a challenge too.  The question is: how can I get enough
power to launch off this short deck?  Try it and have fun!
