Hi,
I have a question to those in the know....

In SH3 and SH4, i would spend most of my time underwater because i could detect a ship further away with the Hydrophone than seeing on the horizon. Thus i could hear it before seeing it!!

Now given that in history U-boat commanders would spen as much time as they could above water, im guessing, the hydrophone has been seriously enhanced.

My question is: in reality how far could the Hydrophone detect a ship at say 9 knots and is that further than the eye could see it?
Also how is this depicted in SH5 (which i have not played yet..waiting for the Mega mod) is it correct or non-sence.

And lastly, guessing it is portraied incorrectly in-game, has a mod fixed the issue?

Thanks
