The only explanation I could logically think of (sighting would have been useless)
was MAYBE in the sound detection on the American boat. U-571 was dead in
the water and the S-boat was too. BUT, as the S-Boat approached U-571,
its diesels MAY have had a different sound signature than U-Boats. Of course,
it's all speculation and they just made the movie for action shots rather than to
simulate any kind of historical accuracy....
