Does the dipp sonar's signal show up on the ffg's sensors or is it just for AI use?

FFG has no sensor to detect active sonars. But it shows on active sonar warning systems on subs.

I meant, does the ffg skipper see what his own helo is picking up on the dipping sonar?

The contact will be promoted by the AI helo, so you will see it on the Nav Screen. If you meant if you see it on the grams or in the TA station - No.

I see .. yes .. as OneShot said. Those contacts will show up in Link layer, same for radar, visual or sonobuoy contact which helo finds.
