I am fully up to date. I am talking about the radiated noise vs ownships speed. Right now it is as you said, the faster you go the noisier you are. However, that is actually not true.

Being VERY careful how I word this now.....

Ownships noise does not increase in proportion to ships speed. Up to a certain point you can increase ships speed with little change in radiated noise levels. Once a certain speed is attained you have a marked increase in radiated ships noise. The only real detrimental affect speed has until that point is the effectiveness of ships sensors. As far as you being detected, going faster does not increase your chance of being detected, but DECREASES your abiltity to detect the OTHER guy.

I have talked about this in roundabout terms before. I am trying to explain it in generic terms that will not compromise operational boats. Please forgive me if this sounds dumbed down.
