An incident was simulated in which the ship was {{U}}?(56) ?{{/U}} by two Exocet missiles causing flooding to 30 {{U}}?(57) ?{{/U}} receipt of the flood damage information in the damage control centre to a full printout of damage, effects, {{U}}?(58) ?{{/U}} countermeasures and an assessment of the result of the countermeasures.

Quite often the " {{U}}?(63) ?{{/U}} solution" will be unacceptable for operational reasons.
