Umm I'm no expert but I don't think Romeo class submarines were noisier than German 2nd world war submarines. The Romeo was built in 1950s and the Soviet developed the design after having learned the German revolutionary Type XXI so I believe Romeo must be even better than German type XXI boat.

Grisha V corvettes were built between 1985 to 1994 so about 4 decades after the Romeos were built. So it's safe to assume that Grisha V would be quieter than a Romeo SSK at least for certain speed range.

I would also like to point out to you what or which sub or surface ship that you played when detecting the Romeo. It's not fair to deem the sub very noisy when you are playing a Los Angeles class submarine for example. The latter was developed much later with much improved sonar suite and quietening measures.

Being a silent hunter 3 gamer I hope you will fall in love with DW too. Check the DWX mod if you are interested in having more playables and numerous improvements to the sim. DW is not SH3 but I like both in equal measure.
