Identifying hydrophone sounds

You definitely heard dolphins. There are more than just sounds of them, if you get close enough, you can see them through the periscope. I think estimating speed by counting propeller RPM doesn't give good results in stock but there are mods that should make it possible. I'd like to try it as if you have speed and bearing over enough period of time, you can calculate everything you need for a torpedo solution without ever sticking your periscope out of the water - no fancy active sonar required.
