I suppose the idea is that at the surface, all you'd hear is alot of water surface noise-an idea that does have merit, however..The entire sonar system in the SH series is just really too oversimplified. I don't think it actually incorporates any real world physics at all..it 'turns on' at a certain depth, etc..
On top of that, I've decided that it's the exact same sonar that existed in SH3-there's no real modeling of a US JK/QC system.
