It has nothing to do!

For instant bearing (one bearing value), target's motion has nothing to do! Instantly, target is regarded as a motionless point, for one bearing measurement!

Bearing's deviation as time flows (bearing rate) has to do with SUBMARINE'S coarse speed, TARGET'S coarse speed and SUBMARINE to TARGET distance.
But this is another big chapter!
