Default launch transients, torpedo sounds, and realism

I'm sure this topic has been beaten to death over the years, but it still bugs me. I'm not sure what the advantage was of an electric torp over a steam torp in real life, because I imagine that a torpedo launch (and it's entire subsequent run) would be such a noisy event that escorts would most certainly hear it, and hence get a good bearing to the attacker from it. Like - in real life, at torpedo launch, I imagine that ships would start evasion right away following a 'Torpedo in the water' report. I wonder if there's some way to mod this into SH3??
