I'm not sure, however, if they raised up a bit the sound level on batteries for gameplay purposes... new electric submarines seem to be very very quiet...
Depends very much on the class of SSK; some are quieter than others on battery, but all are going to be fairly loud when they turn on their diesels.

According to Tom Clancy, some Japanese SSKs have prairie masker which could conceivably make them quieter when snorkeling. Other classes might have masker too.

The simple answer is they should be *much* easier to find with engines on.
