So i assume therefore only the Starboard Hydrophones on the WAA were picking up sound and therefore resolving the ambiguity of the Towed Array without me having to make any turns to resolve the ambiguity?
Am i right?
Thanx

Maybe. It would depend on whether you were able to determine if the WAA and towed array were, in fact, seeing the same target. Since the sensors have different properties, it's possible to see one target on one, and another target on the other.
The way to resolve this issue is to look on the narrowband display and see if the two contacts give off the same tonals. Unless you can see their full spectrum there's still a chance you can be wrong but after 2 or 3 tonals, depending on which ones they are, it might be worthwhile to chance it.
