If you start a turn, then yes you will definitely see ownship appear on the towed array.
To see ownship on the TA, the TA must not be in the longitudinal axis of the ship/sub.
If the TA is lower than ownship but in the longitudinal axis of ownship then you won't see ownship.
The only moment you need to be aware that the TA is bending down is during tma, if you go too slow the bearing lines will give a very bad tma, so you must keep a minimum speed to have the TA at the same level than OS to have good bearing lines.
