The doubts of an unlikely commander...

Sorry for my very poor english language!
I wish your point of wiew about those question:
- a weapon like the harpoon is able to search, detect and destroy objects like snorkel, radar mast, esm mast ? I've tryed sometimes but the harpoon has passed beyond the target whitout detect him. Very interest is snorkel because the difficult detection of diesel-elettric boats!

- A torpedoes set for slow spees(35/40 knots), when acquires a target increase its speed until maximum spees or remain at the initially spees?

- I know that the active torpedoes has an tidimensional acquisition cone which has his diameter an his detection range.
I ask: a passive torpedoes has the same cone? Or his passive sensor hear the sound incoming from all direction ?

Many tanks, Scaitan!!! Good hunting!!!
