MaHuJa, regarding the FFG Passive Hull Sonar, even with the stock DB, the passive hull array is deaf enough that it won't detect a supertanker at 8kts within visual range of the contact. We haven't changed the sensitivity at all of any passive sensor in the game, other than the VLAD, in the modified database, only reduced the passive sound levels of objects in the game, which creates a relative decrease in passive effectiveness for all passive sensors.

It really is a poor passive sensor, almost a waste of time to use in anything other than active mode, IMHO.
