Yeah, in the game it is possible. I think we are trying to figure out if it was possible in real life and, if not, making a note to not exploit the game in the future.

To take another example, clicking the "lock" function in the periscope or UZO lets you "see" ships 6 or 7 nm away, even in dense fog... not possible in real life, so it's up to the player to decide whether to exploit that or not
