Sorry guys, a layer is not going to differentiate between two bearings. If you change depth the sound on both directions are going to disappear simultaneously. Because it is the same sound. It's just that the TA sensor can't tell the difference between left and right. I know, it sounds stupid with all that modern technology. But it is just the physics/math of it. And a uuv solution is way to expensive resource wise.

Stanny actually mentions a course change.

My layer change tactic is to hide you launching a UUV from the contact. If he would've launched the UUV in the same layer, he probably would've tipped off the AI depending on the SSP. Stanny's history in sonar questions show that he's learning on the fly and doing a good job at it.
