Won't work. You make the same amount of noise near the bottom as above. Until you make a nose dive, then you are louder.

Active sonar directed at you might theoretically give you an edge because the echo of the bottom and your echo almost coincide. But don't count on it. Your sub is still a very good reflector compared to the seabottom. And in-game I don't think this is modeled at all.
