It seems modern diesel subs really are quiet. For example, since we joined the NATO, it seems every western nation wants our Kilo class sub (ORP Orzel) to take part in their sea excercises! And it's not even the newer Kilo generation. Oh, but don't believe mr. Clancy's 'black sea hole' Kilo theory, the man's delusional.
As for the Kilo class itself it seems it was specifically designed to detect and stalk/hunt big nuclear subs.
