In effect, yes. And as long as we can be sure that submarines had some sort of countermeasure throughout the war putting them back into the mod is almost essential because of the insanely high accuracy rate of depth charge attacks in the game. At this point I'm willing to do almost anything to reduce the AI's uncanny ability to get depth charges onto the sub.

Actually I'm probably going to put them back in based on the evidence I've seen already, but it would be perfect if there was some definitive example of some kind of noisemaker being used in 1942-43.
