Default Conformal Array Sonar

Anyone got any good information about them? I'm trying to find more information on Conformal Arrays and their supposed capabilities to perhaps model them in-game, but I've had only limited success with my Google searches.

Does any current submarine platform utilize conformal arrays atm? I've heard the Japanese Navy has an SSK that uses conformals. Can anyone confirm?

How are the capabilities of a conformal array different than the currently utilized hull and/or spherical arrays? Different washout speeds? Sensitivity? Frequency ranges? :hmm:

Any information and/or good sources would be appreciated.
