Ease of Detection by Active Sonar Differences between U-Boat types?

Fritz Klum · 04-24-18, 10:57 AM

Hello,

I am getting ready to play an SH3 Campaign (With GWX) for the first time in a while, and had a question:

I've heard that smaller U-boat models are harder to detect with active sonar because essentially there is less metal to detect. If this is true, the Type II would be far harder for active sonar to pick up than the type IX.

Is this true in real life? and what about in SH3?

Thanks for any info
