He was referring to the fact that submarines that are submerged but near the surface are still affected by the motion of the ocean. In SH3 you would still get some movement as deep as 30 meters in a storm and at periscope depth in any but the calmest weather.

* Ping range to target with sonar

Could uboats do this????
The later ones with active sonar could, though it was dangerous if escorts were about. The real question is, did Type VIIs in 1943 have active sonar?
