I wish my crewmen would tell me that! I feel sorry that my highly trained crew is uncapable of telling me if this wonderfull Typhoon I'm targeting is 2 nm or 5 away!

Is there any way to "calculate" the distance to a sonar contact? I know that the bigger the line is, the closer/louder the contact is but other than that? I'm mosty curious as for Harpoons and such you need to be sure of the distance to the target not for your nice missiles to pass over their head and give them time for their tiny Seahawk to take off and kick your-.. Stern.
