Or only when submerged, like some sound is emulating a bent fan blade, and that fan only "runs" while submerged?

I was using a Gato in June, '43. The sound occurred when heading deep or when I was at periscope depth. I mentioned hearing this same sound when we first started the project. Seems like two difference sounds we're getting here. Can't say I've heard the one described by you, propbeanie.
