They sure could. You can hear recordings of what they sounded like here: http://hnsa.org/sound/index.htm

I'm reading Nothing Friendly In The Vicinity (Claude Conner). Conner was a radar technician aboard the Guardfish. He mentions that because of the frequency range he could not hear pinging on the JP but he could hear all kinds of sea life like snapping shrimp, croakers and whales, and some sounds that were never identified. This is the way he describes it in the book..."The sounds built up to a peak at sunrise and sunset, like those in a tropical jungle. It was a wonderful cacophony of discordant whistles, howls, hoots, rumbles, belches, snaps, crackles, and pops."
Those recordings are great. Now if we can just add them to SH4. |

Schools of whales were often mistaken for convoys by rookie sonar operators (yes really) so it would be realistic to have the sounds at least.
But if it were in 3d you would have to be careful not to collied with the marine life ![]() |

In the Wahoo's famous Reconoitering of Wewak Harbor, they got back out to the open sea without putting up the scope. The sound man could hear the shrimp on the beach and by their location knew when to turn. At the time he identified them as "beach noises". From George Grider's book Warfish.
