Detection issue?

Hello.

When last I played Cold Waters I was in a Los Angeles class submarine (1984) encountering 2 older model soviet diesel submarines. I spawned in rather close to them, so opted to just turn off all engines and just lie still and wait for them to pass me close by and then I'll attack them from the rear once they have covered some distance.

However, seems this is not possible, because despite my engine being turned off and ultra quiet being enabled, a soviet diesel submarine can apparently detect me anyway with their passive sensors when at a few kilometers distance. The enemy sub passive sensor value did go ito the positive value range, but how can it if I lie completely still in the water?

I dont know enough about submarines to be sure if this is realistic. Can anyone confirm/deny?

Cheers.
