Depends. I could really use help here in determining how efficient the keel-mounted sonar was at detecting plain-old ship noises while on the surface, i.e., up to what general speed. |
Whatever ahead slow would equate to in kts. This as per the USS Batfish and tactic used so the sonar could be used while surfaced. I guess somewhere between 3-5 kts. After that the sonar should have muddled sounds and water sounds going around the hull.
