Realistically speaking, you'd never hear them launch. And you'd be extraordinarily lucky to hear them hit the water for that matter. Normally the first (and only) indication that you'd had a hedgehog attack launched at you was the explosion when one impacted your hull.
Also, their pattern was either circular or elliptical.
