Default Exactly how loud am I?

Is there a chart/table of detection range vs speed for the various platforms?

I dont't have one,
Your noise performs different when you are in different depths and Sea enviroments(Bio,Ice,etc). so table like this may not accurate in gameplay.

BTW,Dose anyone know where can I find sensor detection range of various platforms?(TA Sonas,ESM,rader)

When you go in the mission editor, the map has a tool (right context menu) that let you display the max range of a sonar against a selected unit...

THANKS,HAWK6,
I ACTUALLY WANT A EXCEL FORMAT-LIKE DOCUMENT WHICH CONSOLIDATS SENSORS' RANGE OF VARIOUS PLAFORMS,ESPECIALLY SUBS.
I THINK IT IS NECESSARY IN BATLE,SOME ONE SHOULD HAVE MADE THIS DOCUMENTS,

the blue book written by the seawolves does give you charts speed data tables and that for SC and DW I do have a hard copy and is probably available on here in the DL section.

DWEdit will give you a comparison of the base noise levels as well as the noise at speed. The detection ranges will depend on the sea condition, sea bottom type, and the sensitivity of the opposing sonar. To test it out you'll probably have to create test scenarios to get a feel for things.

There are too many variables for any one detection range table to be on any utility. Will just take some gestalt after boating around a bit.

I don't think there was ever made a noiselevel comparison chart for Stock DW. There have been made some for mods. I found one in the LWAMI 3.03 archive I still have. But that will be of no use if you don't have that mod and particular version. And it's only noise level versus speed. I never did figure out how the noiselevel differences result in to a distance scale.
